[vonVeezelsnider]

I Dream of Jeannie, Played by Larry Hagman, and it was a Yellow F1 Firebird

[HarleyEarl]

I guess he drove more than one ......which GM car did he drive in the second season?

Since when? The only car I ever remember Captain Nelson having was a blue '66 or '67 GTO convertible, and I think in the first season which was in black & white he had a white '65 GTO convertible. I think Major Healey may have had the Firebird you're thinking of.

The only one I can remember seeing the Captain drive is the blue Pontiac GTO convertible.

Maybe it was Major Healey and the Firebird....I need to do some research.

[vonVeezelsnider]

I wouldn't know, I've only seen a few episodes, but in one of them it was definitely an F1 Firebird in Yellow. The others, yes he has a GTO convertible, but Healy's Firebird was that greeny-blue color I believe.

Bingo!

What car did Greg and Marcia Brady do their famous driving competition in?

[wildcat]

Hudson, I don't know. But in the current American Family Insurance TV commercial "take-off" on the Brady Bunch, the driveway has a blue Pontiac (like an early '70s LeMans or Tempest) convertible and a big, brown Buick Estate Wagon in the garage.

What car did Greg and Marcia Brady do their famous driving competition in?

I believe it was a Chevy Impala convertible, likely a '72, '73, or '74 model.

[A Horse With No Name]

Bingo on the Impala convertible thing.

I just love those old Firebirds and GTO's. Anyone else see the 59 Caddy parked by the curve in the I dream of jeanie you-tube thing-ama-jig?
