If you are a fan of classic cars like me, there is a good chance you would like watching them when they were just the latest cars on the market. Thanks to services like Netflix and Amazon we have access to more classic TV shows and the awesome classic cars that are in them than ever before. Here are a few of the series I have been watching, not only are they great shows, but you if you are a fan of the cars of the 60's & 70's you are going to love watching them just for the cars.
I-Spy
1965-1968
The international filming means that the show is filled with classic cars from Europe, Asia, and the USA.

Mission Impossible
1966-1973
Before the films with Tom Cruise, the elite covert operations unit known as the Impossible Mission Force or IMF carried out highly sensitive missions around the world. Filmed using the contemporary cars of the day the show is filled with unique classic cars and even wild custom go-kart that they use to escape in season 5, episode 8 titled Decoy.
With series regulars like Peter Graves, Martin Landau, Barbara Bain, Leonard Nimoy, and my personal favorite Greg Morris the show had an all-star cast and top guest stars. But the real stars are the cars which range from classic Fords to vintage BMWs and Volvos.

The Persuaders!
1971-1972
Two international playboys, played by major Hollywood stars Tony Curtis and Roger Moore, solve crimes around Europe while driving a Ferrari Dino and Aston Martin DBS. Danny Wilde (Curtis) is a street-smart, self-made millionaire from the Bronx, Lord Brett Sinclair (Moore) is an upper-crust member of the British establishment.
