many of you knwo ive been looking for this video for quite a while. suspison is that one of the members on the site has it but thats neither here nore there. so upon calling/emailing and basicly harrassing any and every cbs station and affiliation im taking shots in the dark now. There is a few suggestions that member jakup and i had. If everyone would post a wanted ad or 2 on craigslist from where there from maybe just maybe we can scrounch up somthing. Also local libraries maybe be able to help out. it seems that cbs will be of no help in the situation. This video footage is a piece of 3 wheeler history and should be shared with the people and enthusiest that apresiate the culture and history of these wonderful machines.

Some where some one has a copy of this footage that hopefully they would be willing to share. Futher more ive beeen told by cbs that if such video was to be found that it would be ok to make a caopy of the video as long as it it not "sold" for profit.

Im a 3 wheeler atv enthusiest and im looking for this video. the video was called "The most dangerous vehicle" the producer of the episode was David Gelber. This episode was aired on 4/12/87 on cbs. I have contacted many cbs people to no avail. I know someone somewhere must have a copy of this episode. contact me threw email at kwit21@aol.com thank you very much


here is a copy of my craigslist posting in rochester ny.

WHAT WE KNOW:

*the episode was produced by David Gelber
*the name of the episode was "The Most Dangerous Vehicle".
*the date that this episode aired was 4/12/87
* And of course it was aired on cbs
* I do belive that dan rathers was the spoksman (not 100%)
*The transcript for the video IS avalible however it is the footage what were after here.

and this picture below is the only evidence that i have found of the videos existance. go ahead and use that pic in your ads.

If you have any questions you can email me at kwit21@aol.com or give me a call on my cell at (585) 576-5898 my name is chris. or you can contact jake (jakup) at 262-470-5259 or email him at jaykup@wi.rr.com

Oh it definably exists, like chrisr200x said, we watched it up to raffa's ice race last weekend. I shot ChrisD a PM since he is the one with the Vid

Dammit!

I don't even remember the 60 minutes one. I could swear the one I saw was 20/20 with Barbara Walters.

I tried contacting ABC about purchasing a video transcript of that episode but no response. I think the phone is probably the way to go.

I was gonna say that in my earlier post Mr. Raffa. There's one part with some hillbilly's with no shirts or helmets drinkin beer and acting like idiots...

Totally a one sided story... and kinda gut wrenching to watch some parts imo.

I also watched it at Raffas, very irritating. It's all one sided, as stated above. All the bad's and non of the goods. People are idiots.

OK guys - some one please get hold of ChrisD then. I have the ability to transfer it from VHS to DVD - but no way to burn copies fast once that is done.

Come one - let's pull our resources - us guys who have not seen it (since it aired - I have brief recollections) would really like to. Surely someone can get hold of Chris.
