Well digital tv has been here for ages, but the faily new 7mate is re-running magnum episodes. Well so what you ask?
TJ; thats the chopper pilot for anyone who remembers the show, drives around in a mint 85/86 T3 (vanagon there).
It has a cracker of a custom paint job similar to the A-Team van.
search U-Tube there is a A-Team T3.
Anyone ever see a magnum pi replica? There must be one in the usa somewhere.
Anyhow watching the show is the only time I am glad I have an earlier round headlight model.😎

i've seen a replica paint job on the UK Brickyard website
Actually there were several different T3 Kombis (or 'Vanagons' as the Americans call them) used during the Magnum PI series. The show ran for 8 series, between 1980 and 1988.
The earlier series used an air-cooled T3, recognised by having only the one front grille. This one has been made into a Revell plastic model - would be quite collectable now.
In 1984 or so the T3 was updated to the latest watercooled model, which has the second front grille.
And actually nothing like the A-team van at all.
i was offered the Magnum PI van quite a few years ago when i lived in the UK, there were 2 main issues, 1, the motor had thrown a rod, 2 it was still in Hawaii, its along way to drive it with no motor!
