This clip was on my FB feed. The video was showing the cars driven by Agent 69 on the Get Smart series in the '60s
I wonder what the truck in the background was used for. It had to be a special order truck. Looks like it was pulling a live stock trailer.

Uh, point of clarification.... Maxwell Smarts agent number was 86, not the afore mentioned 69.
I had to look it up to be sure. While looking it up I discovered the actress that played agent 99 is still living.

The images are real, from the imcdb.com website, documenting cars used in tv and movies. I don't recall the episode but I will be searching it out. 1968 GT500 convertibles have been selling in the half mil territory lately.

Jut last week at the ATHS national truck show, I saw examples of trucks very similar to that with crew cabs. That one may be a B-Model Mack. Cabs like that were used for fire trucks too.

I'm sure the truck is a '48-50 Ford.
A friend of mine has an extended sleeper cab F-8, there were only 6 made using Ford trucks but I saw a Mack with what looked like the same sleeper cab on my Friends Ford.

Come on guys. Maxwell Smart first drove a 1961 Ferrari 250 Cabriolet (pilot only), then a Sunbeam Tiger which had a Ford 260 V-8 in it. He then drove a Karmann Ghia, then an Opel GT, then the blue Mustang GT and finally on his wedding day a Citroen CV2. https://getsmart.fandom.com/wiki/Max%27s_Cars

Add to those above...the Sunbeam Alpine..."A Sunbeam Alpine was actually used in lieu of the Tiger in various episodes. A 4-cylinder, the Alpine was re-badged and striped to look like a Tiger because there was more room to stow the cannon."
