John Clanton, Ben Heath et al: Interstate Transportation of Stolen Motor Vehicles—Murder.
Original air date: 4 February 1968
Repeated 21 July 1968
The unexplained death of a race car driver (sniper shot) places Inspector Lewis Erskine and S.A.C. Tom Colby on the trail of a stolen car ring. This leads them to the racing circuit around Los Angeles, where Mr. Colby poses as a car racer, and the inspector as a racing owner.
Sports car racing was popular in 1968 the same way NASCAR is in the 21st century. By this time, The FBI was just beginning to really hit its stride as a TV series.
- Tom Bosley would achieve stardom as Mr. Cunningham on Happy Days (1974-83). He looks very young indeed, which he was (40 years old).
