Corvair Monza Spyder "Cameo" on Vegas TV

Post by bbodie52 »

The CBS television show "Vegas" http://www.cbs.com/shows/vegas is based in the early 1960s. A lot of vintage cars appear in the show, and in the episode entitled "(Il)Legitimate" (Air Date: 10/23/12) a beautiful 1962 Corvair Monza Spyder convertible makes a "cameo appearance" in the final scene.

The entire episode can still be viewed on the CBS Web site http://www.cbs.com/shows/vegas/video/99 ... legitimate

The same car has been in two episodes so far. The District Attorney is a regular character, so we may see more of this Corvair over the course of the season.

There are some comments from other "Vegas" viewers, who are also Corvair enthusiasts, that can be read at the following Web site...

I don't know how long this show episode will be available on the CBS Web site. I captured several still pictures from the video, shown below. I have included descriptive captions that provide some information about this storyboard presentation...
