Kaptain Kendall, the caped crusader who rescued motorists stranded on the sprawling roads of South Miami-Dade, gets the John Holden treatment in this Summer Of '84 clip.
Kaptain Kendall debuted about a year before this story, co-sponsored by a local radio station and Kendall Toyota. His identity was a closely guarded secret; in press reports he was only identified as Gary.
Here's our question: Is Kaptain Kendall still a thing? Is he still rolling along Kendall's streets, assisting the automotively disabled? Let us know if you've spotted this manic mechanic -- or if he's helped you with a car problem of your own!
