Face’s Corvette (The A-Team)

Though this car did not get as much screen time as The A-Team van, this 1984 C4 Corvette was the pride and joy of Templeton “Faceman” Peck. With red interior and a red stripe (to match B.A.’s van), it is equipped with a CB radio and a mobile phone. The license plate was S967238 in it debut on the episode, “The Taxicab Wars” and then changed to 1HJG851.

As well as a number of cameos in other stories, the car was prominently featured in several episodes, including season two’s “Chopping Spree, where it was used as bait in an attempt to catch car thieves. The car’s final appearance is in the fifth season opener “Dishpan Man, where it is heard, off-screen, to crash after new recruit Frankie Santana gives Face some bad advice about repairing the faulty brakes. However, as B.A.’s jewelry is also damaged via similar bad advice and yet reappears in subsequent episodes, it is never made clear whether the Corvette was too badly damaged to drive from that point on-wards, or simply didn’t happen to appear in any more stories before production of the series was cancelled later in the season.
