As most kids watching these shows in the eighties I always wanted to be a stuntman, The Fall Guy was shown between 1981 and 1986 and starred Lee Majors as hollywood stuntman Colt Seavers.
With help from Howie and Jody they moonlighted as bounty hunters on the side which was usually the main plot. When trying to capture the fugitive they predictably found more than they bargained for and usually ended up in scrapes, chases and stunts like they were on the set of a film.
Colts truck also became a very popular part of the show, the early 80s GMC pickup was two tone tan / brown with high lift suspension and huge off road tyres. More noticeably was the large Stuntman's Association Eagle painted on the bonnet. No one particular type or year pickup was used throughout the series due to them getting periodically destroyed in huge jumps and real stunts for the show.
