Sure do miss old Roy! Many a Saturday morning was spent watching Roy, Gabby Hays and Dale Evans. Bullet and trigger were great to watch too.

Got to shake Roy's hand once at the Wisconsin state fair in Milwaukee. I was about 10 YO at the time. I didn't wash that hand for a week! Saw trigger perform, then he rode along in front of the grandstand in--------durnit, what was the name of his jeep?Annabell?

Roy is still on the country channel in the late afternoons. Some of them are new to me because we didn't have a TV for a long time.

Nelliebell was the jeeps name with Pat Brady.

Clarabell was a clown, like the one in the White House now.:mrgreen:

Hmm, close but no cigar. I guess @ 67, I'm lucky to remember the last half of nelliebells name!

Country channel/ Re-runs of Roy and the crew? I'll go looking for it today. TWC makes the claim they have all the channels worth viewing, so they GOTTA have it!

The Roy Rogers Show, featured a 1946 Willys CJ-2A Jeep
named Nellybelle, which had some unusual bodywork. It was in fact
owned by Roy, but was driven in the show by his comic sidekick,
Pat Brady. The name apparently developed out of Pat riding an
ornery mule in the earlier movies, and addressing it with
phrases like "Whoa, Nelly!"

In most episodes of the show, Nellybelle's name is painted on her
doors.


As Pat Brady drove around Mineral City, he had the habit of
talking sweetly to his Jeep as if his verbal compliments could
convince Nellybelle to get up and go.

Roy Rogers chose to include a Jeep into the program because
he noticed that after WWII, the Jeeps were real popular,
especially with children.

Nellybelle's license number was 3P5-388.
