Citizen Band radios?

Or Will and Sonny before... Movin' On... Watched it every week! Kenworth W925VIP with a VT903.

Of course, no CB discussion would be complete without a reference to a pretty good movie in its day that reminds me of whole CB era "Smokey and the Bandit".

Fortunately some of the ships are museums. Kinda sad, BB-61 USS-Iowa is not remaining in N Calif; it will go to Los Angeles.

If anyone has kids in Cub Scout, Boy Scout, Girl Scout, Brownie, 4H, or other organizations, I would highly recommend a trip(overnite program) to one of the ships.

BB-59 USS Massachusetts in Battleship Cove was the first ship to offer an overnight program. BB-59 USS Massachusetts still offers the program. CVS-12 USS Hornet, CVS-16 USS Lexington, and CV-41 USS Midway offer programs. Submarine SS-383 USS Pampanito also offers a program.

There may be other ships with programs.

Thanks, just contacted the BB-59 to see what it costs. Sounds awesome.

These guys have one of two known "BJ and the Bear" trucks; the other found it way to Australia... They had built a replica before buying one of the show originals.

They also have the only known "Movin' On" truck

TV Truckin

A Replica of the "Convoy" truck that has parts from some of the movie truck, plus the original movie prop tank trailer.

And the "Duel" truck, although it was sold; I had found the new owner website a while back, but do not see it now.

"Smokey and the Bandit" trucks and trailers burnt in a fire where they were stored; a third truck supposedly existed, but last know in '97...

I did a Google a while back, and found a replica truck/trailer of the "Bandit" truck. There was a youtube of it, surrounded by a bunch of black Trans-Am's.

Well, there's some CB talkin' movies and TV shows!
