WAS IT FATE, A PREMONITION, OR,  JUST A COINCIDENCE ?  WELL, HERE'S THE STORY...DECIDE FOR YOURSELF:

In a chance viewing of "TV Land", just before a  meeting with George Barris, Jonnie is amazed to see a Classic Episode of "The Munsters" ! 

But this was no ordinary Episode: this was one of the most famous of All-Time:  "Hot Rod Herman" !   A  show in which George and his crew not only built the "Munster Koach"&"Drag-U-La" cars,  BUT George actually drives one of the cars in the race, and pops a wheelie doing it !!

NOTE: In this Special Version of the Interview - created just for our Hall Of Fame Legends Series- Grandpa Munster makes a guest appearance.  Oh, and listen for the"wheelie" !
