My lasting memory was seeing the "Pieta". Not my picture



We went thru on a conveyor belt/people mover as I recall. It was dimly lit and I swear you hear a pin drop as we went thru. It made a real impression on that 13 year old.

I think we were being followed by a Fairlane.

Destined to become McGarrett's car in Hawaii Five-O a couple of years later...

[WPOZZZ]

McGarrett's Merc Marquis is still here. His body double/stuntman was give the car, and it had a little bit of rust issues years ago. I think it was the same car that was used as John McG's car in the reboot. He was also Magnum's double/stuntman.
