Are you saying this car was once owned by Jon Voight?

I just caught that. It is very accurate. I can't wait to share it with my Israel hating liberal friends.

Conrack was very good.
Maybe he should run for office—we had good luck with another actor once.
Senator Voight has a good ring to it. Nice if he would run for senator of NY. Might even have a chance of winning.
My memory is that he went to Stepinac HS in White Plains. Knew a LOT of Stepinac guys back in the day (unfortunately, not Voigt)
Yes, Catholic schooling although he lived in Yonkers and went to school in White Plains. A thousand years ago I saw him walking down 5th Avenue - possibly the tallest man I had ever seen!
What a lunatic show!
Ridin around in Jon Voight’s car...
By all means, please do. Hope it goes viral.
One of John Voight’s earliest roles was when he played a young hot-headed punk in one of the Naked City episodes back in the early 60’s.
I have all the Naked Citys on dvd. Great show. I’ll see if I can find him - Wikipedia or IMDB probably has the season and episode #. He must have been really young - he looks so young in Conrack.
One reason I like watching that show (on MeTV, but it’s only once a week, Monday mornings at 2:00AM) we lived in DaBronx at that time, brings back memories. Especially the shows from the 1962 season. The Pontiacs Harry Bellaver and Paul Burke drove in those shows were just like the 62 Catalina my dear old Dad had. I learned how to drive on that car. :)
My husband grew up in the Bronx at the same time. You must watch Car 54 since that was shot in the Bronx as well.
YES! Car 54, where are you? They used the old elementary school on City Island as the police station. Years ago, I met some of the cast at a car show and oldies concert at Orchard Beach.
That and Bilko are my two favorite NY shows. Nat Hiken, a genius.
