It started off great.

Stocker roadster gradually changing into proper jalopy Hot Rod thoughout the episode.

Then in the final scene it morphs into this... wtf?

Colour coded, smoothed, white!, coil over shocks, wide radials and moon discs to hide the alloy wheels!

When was the Waltons set? late '30s, 40's?

The picture above is John Buttera's car and is the actual one used in the episode.

That white one looks like John Buttera's...although I guess they (nearly) all looked like that in the '80s.
