WKRP Intro Dashboard

Hello all!

I was just watching the pilot to the original WKRP in Cincinnati. In the original intro, there is a shot of a dashboard with someone switching stations on the radio. I am wondering if anyone knows the car they used for the intro. It looks like a wood dash and the novice in me thinks a Triumph but I could be showing my complete lack of knowledge here. Any guesses? Here is a link to the the intro on [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_srg0ZFaOgE]Youtube[/url].

This is what I do in Ohio when the weather is nice and my 76 MGB "Beatrice" is stored away for the winter....

For some reason the link you posted is reversed! This one works correctly, at least for me. The dashboard resembles a Spitfire, but there's something not right about that, either. AL Bradley

Thanks Al! Much better....

Here is a screen capture of the dashboard from the original intro to WKRP.

I would rather have a screen capture of Bailey Quarters.

Possibly a Midget that somebody has screwed some wood to. (screws above and below the guage on left)

The controls, choke, screenwash pump and heater are certainly the same as BMC cars (late 60s/early 70s?)

"As God is my witness, I thought turkeys could fly."

It's an MGB steel dash that someone "covered" with wood.

That's it Ron! Woo hoo! Now I can rest....

Thanks all!

All that Baily Quarters reminiscing made me go to Hulu.com and play a couple of old shows. She was the cats meow then and still is!

Thanks James, but that was way too easy, having had a steel dash car in the past.

Of all the repeat shows on TV, I don't know why WKRP is never on?

Ken, I agree. same with the Honeymooners, they are nowhere to be found

ONe of the best explinations of chemistry I heard was on that show. Can't find it on DVD, though.

I agree on the theme music. It was probably one of the best
opening themes of any that were out there.

You're right Ken, and completely ad-libbed. Thanks for posting, I've been trying to find this for years.

Ken, remember this clip?
