    I have a white 76 LeSabre....I've looked at this screen shot a number of times and I'm thinking thats 76 buick LeSabre behind "John". Thoughts? If any of you watch the series, there is an above shot of them rolling down the highway and it looks big enough to be a Buick. I know multiple shots can be taken at different times during filming, but you can see a long white vehicle in front of them from the sky shot. I also know that the show had multiple seasons, but that grille looks like something later model.

    Hate to disagree Keith, but the car in question is a LeSabre.

    I have to agree with Brad, even though the picture is poor quality, you still should be able to make out the cornering light on Regal and its not evident on the screenshot behind "John".

    Well it's blurry, so it's not a Buick. It must either be a UFO or Bigfoot.

    I’m not thinking the car looks big enough to be a 76 LeSabre, plus where are the large parking lights below the headlights, there’s very little body color between the parking light and the bumper on a 78. I see what you’re saying about the Regal, I have no doubt it’s a Buick, still not sure which one

    I got a crap load of snow here in Minneapolis, but I should be able to clear garage enough to back car out of it down our long driveway. I'm going to use the lowest quality setting on my camera and take a picture of an object close up with the LeSabre 50-75 ft in the back ground. I'll try to get it done tomorrow before the next "storm of the century" buries this miserable city in another 100 feet of snow. :mad:
