A high powered hunting rifle probably wasn’t the best choice for this. Didn’t kick, though. Nice car.

Looks like someone at Mannix read the Bullitt screenplay, but didn't have the talent to pull it off. Where are McQueen and Hickman when you need them?

You took the words right out of my mouth. That rifle has a big bolt for a .22

Anyone notice the fenders on the Cuda?

No gills.

No gills.

Therefore it's not a fish.

Pretty sure a Barracuda is a fish. Just not a Cuda'.

All of the shots showing the bad guys in the rear view mirror aren't in the real Cuda's mirror, yet you can see the stock mirror in other frontal shots.

I think it was a 1970 Barracuda.

It looked like the route they followed in the show was the same roadways we see when Jay Leno takes us out in one of his vehicles from his collection.

looks like Griffith park and Mulholland drive.

Has a 71 grill and tail lights.

The cars used on the show were 70 Cuda convertibles,I believe there were two. The grilles and taillights were updated to 71 pieces for the 71 season,and were updated again to 72 pieces for the 72 season. In 73 Mannix got a rallye Challenger with a factory sunroof,and in 74 he drove a blue Camaro.
