This is my first submission to the IMCDb. One of my favorite all time series is Crime Story. A gritty crime drama from the mid eighties set in 1963. The series is LOADED with period correct (mostly) vehicles of all types. The only reference you guys have up so far has the pilot misnamed a "made for TV movie". I'll be documenting the entire series. So far I have over 70 images from DVD with 8 more first season episodes and the entire second season left to document.

These images were in the weekly series intro (before the setting moved to Las Vegas) and are taken from scenes in the original Pilot.

Features a 1959 Ford Galaxie Sedan that was used throughout the series as an unmarked Police Car. Also in the frame (front to back on left side); 1962 Oldsmobile Starfire; unknown second car, 1959 Cadillac, and an approx. 1960 International Police Paddy Wagon.

Features a 1960 Ford Fairlane Chicago Police Sedan. I believe there is a similar pic is in the Db, but this one is clearer.

Features a parade of Motorcycle Trike cops parading from a tunnel. I believe this to be taken from archival footage and patched into the intro, not taken from an actual series scene. There are two other 40's cars and what looks like the tail of a 1957 Ford on the left side.

Features the tail of what I believe to be a 1956 Chrysler. This car was used throughout the series as well. I'll have other shots of it up soon.

Okay, this is kind of a clunky way to add stuff to the database. Hope I did it right. Let me know if I have an cars wrong or messed with your Db protocal in any way.

More To Come,
