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" !

TV Promotions For Toys, Lunch Boxes, Magazines, et al, Were Just As Prolific Then As They Are Now !
