Thats pretty cool to see how things were back then.

Cool clip. I've been watching Adam-12. The guy driving the Corvette is also the star of Adam-12, Martin Milner.

Scott-Atwater? "In 1964, Robert P. McCulloch founded Lake Havasu City, Arizona, with a factory and housing for its workers. In 1967, McCulloch discontinued its line of outboard boat engines which it began after the 1956 purchase of Scott-Atwater Mfg. Co. of Minneapolis, Minnesota- the manufacturer of Scott-Atwater outboard boat engines."

Paul, The name McCulloch painted on the boat itself was a dead giveaway:p:)
