Grandpa Passed Away
 

Not mine, but we all knew him well as "Grandpa Munster". Al Lewis dead at age 82. I thought he was 150 years old on TV. The Munsters was my favorite show while growing up. Still watching it 40 years later. Rest in Peace Grandpa.

Didn't Grandpa build the casket-rod to race and win back the family car after Hermie lost it dragging for pinks....it's been a few years? . Where these both Barris cars and do they still exist? . Thanks for the laughs Grandpa. ~ Pete

Al Lewis was actually 95 when he passed away, not 82. What a classic tv show, that is still popular today.

Re: Grandpa Passed Away
 

Hermie and Grandpa were together on Car 54 too. . I never watched this as much but remember it and Hermie without makeup. . Herman's been dead a few years already....I recall seeing him appear as a Judge in some show 10 years or so ago....Cousin Vinny maybe? . Man I love those Firestone slicks on the casket-rod! ~ Pete

Re: Grandpa Passed Away
 

Car 54 was a great show. Wish the still showed it in reruns.

Re: Grandpa Passed Away
 

It seems that Grandpa may have been an old nut. There is a popular radio show in Chicago called Mancow's Morning Madhouse where Grandpa would make frequent appearences. He would frequently talk of drugs, sex with young grils, etc. I believe that he was even a regular at the Indiana Ponderosa Sun Club's "Nude Stock." He was definitely quite a "character!"

Re: Grandpa Passed Away
 

Yes both cars still exsist and Barris brings the munster mobile to many different events

Re: Grandpa Passed Away
 

It was just here in St. Paul.

Re: Grandpa Passed Away
 

Here is Pat a few years back with Grampa &amp; I guess Eddie???

Re: Grandpa Passed Away

Totally off-topic, but check out the PTB stamps on the firewall of the green 69 Z listed in their "new arrivals" section. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/blush.gif

You know I think that Z was at the Fall Mecum auction last year. Those stampings look really familiar.
