The Strangest Secrets of the Munster Koach

20 Weird Facts About the Munster Koach You Never Knew #1960s #1970s #1980s #backtoyesterday If you grew up watching The Munsters, you remember the towering, coffin-black family car rolling across your screen — but few fans know what went into building that monster. In this video, we reveal 20 weird facts about the Munster Koach you never knew, from its outrageous construction to the bizarre modifications made just to fit Herman behind the wheel. Believe it or not, the Koach was built from three Ford Model T bodies welded together, stuffed with a 425-horsepower engine, and lined with blood-red velvet fit for a vampire mansion. And because the car sat so high, Fred Gwynne (Herman) — already wearing 50 pounds of costume — had to sit on the floor to drive it. We’ll uncover the hidden engineering tricks, the insane cost of building a TV prop like this, the rivalry with the Dragula car, and the little-known behind-the-scenes secrets Universal tried to keep quiet. Join us as we lift the hood on one of TV history’s wildest vehicles.
