Bloopers

1 The lost dog poster for Fuzzhead has the all numerical phone numbers that started in the early sixties. They used to be alpha-numerical such as "ME2-3437" instead of 632-3437
2 After the Old Man makes a U-Turn to chase after the Rolls with Fuzzhead, one of the cars seen making a right turn is a 1978-80 Chevrolet Malibu Classic.
3 Near the end when they are stopped waiting for a train to pass, the caboose on the train is Burlington Northern which wasn't formed until 1971.
