The Other Side of the Coin - S4-E16
Continuity mistake: When Sheriff Corby arrests Kimble outside the boarding house, the front door is open and the porch light is on. In the next shot, as they get in the car and drive away, the house door has closed itself and the porch light is off. (00:27:55)
Continuity mistake: Kimble is wounded in the leg and is limping badly when he escapes at the end. Yet in the epilogue, supposedly occurring soon after, he's walking down a road with no sign of the limp, and has also acquired a cowboy hat that he didn't have before. (00:45:50)
Continuity mistake: The captured Kimble lies face down on the ground and rests his head on his folded arms. When the shot cuts to a close-up, however, he's suddenly resting on his elbows and looking up instead. (00:13:00)
Continuity mistake: The leaves sticking to the back of Kimble's coat change positions completely between takes. (00:40:00)
Continuity mistake: Kimble's nephew Billy is mistakenly listed as "Bobby" in the end credits.
A Clean and Quiet Town - S4-E3
Continuity mistake: The one-armed man, whose name was earlier established to be Fred Johnson, is for some reason re-named Cramer in this episode's credits. (00:49:40)
Continuity mistake: We're told here that 4 jurors held out for a not-guilty verdict at Kimble's trial. In "Search in a Windy City," it was said to be 3 jurors. (00:27:20)
Last Second of a Big Dream - S2-E30
Continuity mistake: Kimble is locked in a tiger cage with a waffle-pattern wire mesh. But when he asks the major for help and the shot cuts to a close-up, Kimble is behind ordinary vertical bars, and the mesh has disappeared. (00:37:20)
Continuity mistake: The one-armed man orders Chandler to get up off the ground. In close-up, we see him sit up. But in the very next shot, he's flat on his back and sits up again. (00:11:50)
Tiger Left, Tiger Right - S2-E6
Continuity mistake: We hear Pryor's half of the conversation with the kidnapper, then the tape of both their voices played back by the police. On the tape, Pryor's inflections and pauses are completely different from the "live" conversation. (00:28:30)
Wife Killer - S3-E17
Continuity mistake: Barbara searches the one-armed man's wallet. We see an insert shot of two cards, both with the signature "Fred Johnson." But in the next moment, she claims that no two of the IDs are the same before saying, "Oh, wait, here are two." She then "finds" the cards she'd already found in the earlier shot. (00:18:00)
Continuity mistake: Kimble walks out of Jean's apartment, leaving his bag behind. But in the very next shot, he's holding the bag as he comes out of the building. (00:48:25)
The Other Side of the Coin - S4-E16
Continuity mistake: Corby hides Kimble in the trunk of his car. When it's partially opened, we see Kimble in a horizontal bar of sunlight. After Corby slams the trunk shut, we see another shot of Kimble, who should now be in the dark, still illuminated by the bar of sunlight. (00:47:20)
Continuity mistake: Kimble and Gerard are sitting on the ground, handcuffed together. But without unlocking the restraints, Gerard stands up while Kimble remains seated, and moves several feet away, no longer linked to his prisoner. When he sits down, though, they're suddenly cuffed to each other again. (00:21:20)
The End Is But the Beginning - S2-E17
Continuity mistake: Kimble writes a letter to his father that refers to his brother "Doug." But in "Home Is the Hunted," his only brother's name was Ray.
Continuity mistake: The prosecutor at Kimble's trial is said here to have been Mike Ballinger. But in the earlier "Girl From Little Egypt," the prosecutor's name was Lester Rand. (00:06:50)
Last Second of a Big Dream - S2-E30
Continuity mistake: The tiger claw scars on the major's face disappear, reappear, and change configuration throughout the episode. (00:36:20)
Moon Child - S2-E22
Continuity mistake: Kimble orders coffee and a bowl of chili from the diner's owner, George. But George serves him a glass of water with the chili, and never does bring the coffee. Later, when the sheriff arrives and wants Kimble's dishes to get fingerprints, a cup of coffee mysteriously appears next to the bowl of chili. (00:02:50 - 00:10:30)
Continuity mistake: When Rafe is shot at the end, the gun he was holding in his right hand disappears between shots. (00:45:15)
Landscape with Running Figures (1) - S3-E9
Continuity mistake: Here, Gerard's wife (and he had only one) is a brunette named Marie. In "May God Have Mercy," she was a blonde named Ann. (00:10:00)
Answer: Production vehicle models aren't in sync with the calendar year. The '65 Mustang began production in March 1964 and first sold in April 1964, before it was "introduced" the following year. I don't know which model was seen in the episode, but the 2+2 fastback was sold in September 1964. The 1964 film "Goldfinger" uses a 1965 Mustang as part of Ford's product placement. Basically, in the 1930's, FDR ordered automakers to release vehicles in the fall of the preceding calendar year "as a means of facilitating regularization of employment in the industry." Now, automakers can release new models as early as Jan 2 of the preceding year.
