I practically grew up on Get Smart, it was (and still is) one of my favorite shows. It was on Channel 7 for about 20 years without missing a beat, usually on Sunday afternoons but it went to Saturdays occasionally as well. Even when watching an episode for the 10th time (and could see the jokes coming) I would still be rolling with laughter. Phrases such as "would you believe.....?" and "Sorry about that, Chief" were hilarious and became part of everyday vocabulary.
From what I have read, the opening credits cars were a red Sunbeam Tiger (which were built with a Ford V8) for the first two seasons, the blue VW Karmann Ghia in seasons three and four, and then a 1969 Opel GT for season five. I remember the Sunbeam was used in quite a few episodes as well, it was equipped with lots of Bond-like gadgets, most memorably the ejector seat.
RIP Mr Adams.
