The lost dog
poster for Fuzzhead has the all numerical phone numbers that started
in the early sixties. They used to be alpha-numerical such as "ME2-3437"
instead of 632-3437 |

After the Old Man makes
a U-Turn to chase after the Rolls with Fuzzhead, one of the cars seen
making a right turn is a 1978-80 Chevrolet Malibu Classic. |

Near the end when they

Burlington Northern which wasn't formed until 1971. |
