Welcome to AUTOMOTIVE POP CULTURE DAILY! Today, we start out with one of EVERYONE’S favorites… “This is Jim Rockford… please leave a message” ROCKFORD FILES 1978 FIRBIRD MASTERPRINT ART!! One of the best PI Shows ever made… and made in Malibu.

With a special Sierra Gold exterior and tan interior, the factory Formula 400 model was modified to look like an Esprit for the show. Which is now a super rare car. Side note… James Garner was Fireball Pop’s BEST MAN at his wedding in 1958! Does that make him a Fireball Garner??

BUT DID YOU KNOW?? The Panthermobile, a custom car from the “Pink Panther” cartoon series was Designed by Ed “Newt” Newton.

The “Pleasure Capsule” behind the driver’s seat featured pink shag carpeting, plush seating, a bar, faux fur pillows, a rotary phone, and a black and white TV. Due to the open cockpit and long front end, driving the Panthermobile was considered difficult, requiring the driver to wear a helmet and making visibility challenging.
