OMG! This is another great one! Thanks!
As a Hitchcock devotee, this was a great combination for me -- classic cars and Hitchcock! Your first clip, the first episode of the series S1E1 "Revenge" with Ralph Meeker and Vera Miles, was directed by Alfred Hitchcock himself. The first 60 seconds or so illustrates how Hitchcock liked to tell his stories visually. Without any dialog at all, we are made aware of these things: The location is a seaside residential trailer park in California, the story begins in one of the trailers there, people are just getting up for the day, the principals in the story are a young happily-married couple from Connecticut, their trailer is neat and orderly and the husband is gets up for his new job at 6 AM. I have never seen any other director be able to tell a visual story with such aplomb.
And, yes, that was The Andy Griffith Show's "Aunt Bea," Frances Bavier, as "Mrs. Fergusen." She was in a lot of movies in the 50's. Her first credited role was that of "Mrs. Barley," one of the boarders of the rooming house in the classic "The Day The Earth Stood Still" four years before this episode of AHP.

[@ColinScott-k2u]

Didn't Alfred Hitchcock have the Ford Motor Company lineup for Fords Lincolns and Mercury's on his shows on CBS on Alfred Hitchcock Presents and then Chrysler Dodge and Plymouth cars and trucks on The Alfred Hitchcock Hour on NBC???

[@dimik3855]

Wait a minute. What about the Aston Martin DB MkI that Tippi Hedren drove in The Birds?
Oh, I get it. Only the cars in AHP are mentioned here. My bad.
