As a kid in the 50s Topper was my favorite TV show, so I knew the TV show long before the movie. The movie was much better but the TV show was good. I’m still trying to figure out what kind of car the movie Kirbys were killed in was based on.

It was custom-built by Bohman & Schwartz using a 1936 Buick Roadmaster chassis. I guess they used the Buick body because it had more places to hide the camera.

It was custom-built, but made to look like a Cord.
