When I went years ago, it doesn't seem like it was very well advertised. I heard it at the last minute and was lucky enough to go. Makes you wonder if it's on them and it's their way of saving money? IDK. When I went, I don't think Richard Petty was there. It was just Kyle Petty and a bunch of guys I didn't know. LOL. It was neat and odd at the same time. LOL -

True but I remember when /king Richard was hot in NASCAR and I was like, 8, 9 yrs. old.....doing the math that's 50 yrs. ago ( I'm 59) , then he would've been all that at 37! -
The trio correctly identified the square as the filming location of 'The Music Man' and 'The Gilmore Girls' (both already mentioned in this thread), and then Cathy says "and then didn't they film, um, Opie, uh, what's that, not Happy Days, um ...". She never finished the sentence and never mentioned Andy Griffiths, but it's fair to assume that that's what she was referring to as Ron Howard's character was Opie Taylor (and he was in 'Happy Days'). Exteriors for "The Andy Griffith Show" were mainly filmed at the RKO 40 Acres/Desilu backlot in Culver City, about 45 minutes south of the Warner Bros' backlot. I can't find any evidence of Andy Griffith filming in Burbank. The video below shows what's now standing where the backlots were, and mentions several other shows and movies that were filmed there. It also shows the former Desilu Studios in Hollywood. There's a brief Dukes tie-in at around 12:32 when they show a still of James Best from the 1959 movie 'Verboten!'. -
It's a similar model early '50s Ford F-1 truck, but I very much doubt that it anything to do with Sanford and Son. I can't see any connection between Sanford and Son and Warner Brothers. The truck is also in very good condition and has a red grille, whereas the Sanford and Son truck was tatty with a silver grille. While it could've be restored, I've read that the Sandford and Son truck was bought by a real-life junk yard owner.
