The Lincoln should have five stars in the entry since it is emblematic of the series and appeared at the beginning of every episode. |

We know the car was always on the opening credits but it never appeared in the episodes until later seasons 5 or 6. Does anyone know which season or episode the car started appearing in the show? Was there an episode where the car was specifically introduced? |

Ya, it's listed in the screenshot above 3.18 |

They actually used 2 different 1965 Lincolns that look almost the same. The first picture shown was the first car that was used in the opening credits and up to season 4. The did minor damage to the chrome moldings on the first car and the owner no longer wanted to rent it. They found the second car that looked the same for the last seasons. The difference that you can see is the first car had thin white walls, the later car had wider white walls. You can see the thin white walls in the first pic, and in the pic above my post you can see the wider white walls. First owner was Greg Dupree, the second owner was Harold Tennen. |

@zwiz it might be good to refrain from real last names so these individuals don't get doxxed |

Both already public, the info was shared in public news video. Here is the news article on the second owner... Link to "www.usatoday.com" |

Something interesting I just learned. The Lincoln's plate is QSV-11427. 11427 is the zip-code to Queens Village, NY where the guys are from and QSV is an abbreviation of that. So the plate is a callback to their home town. |
