Saw the commercial last night; loved it! Luckily I was Tivo-ing the show I was watching so I could show it to the family.
A friend of mine had a 65 or 66 GT350, White with Blue stripe. I drove it once and got a ticket on Hwy 17; that was one fun car to drive! My first "adult" car was a '67 Fastback; drove the heck out of it. But I still think the best chase scene is in "Ronin"! |

QUOTE(Hi_Fi_Guy @ Nov 21 2004, 09:31 AM) I watched Bullit again last night...the sounds of the engines reving, blipping, downshifting, on over run all sounded correct for what the car was doing. I wonder if the audio was captured for real instead of dubbed in later. Hi Fi Guy I think if you watch "Bullit" more closely, you'll notice that the "bad guy" wearing the glasses and driving the Charger is able to shift a 4-speed (soundtrack) car without taking his hands off the steering wheel! Must have been shifting by using a timer and air lines like the Pro Stockers of a few years ago! Ron |

QUOTE(Elliot Cannon @ Nov 21 2004, 07:23 AM) ...The best chase scene was in a movie called To Live and Die in LA. Check it out. Cheers, Elliot Elliot In the movie, "To Live and Die in L.A.", there were several scenes filmed at the prison in San Luis Obispo (California Men's Colony). The scene filmed in the visiting room featured several staff, friends with whom I used to work, playing the roll of inmates. There is another scene late in film where the star of the film is shotgunned by one of the "bad guys" in the picture. This scary looking "criminal" is in reality an LAPD Sergeant (who used to work out of Central Division) and in real life, is just as big and scary looking, and from what I hear, just as tough as his movie character!

Oh, and for the record, I was talking about the Pantera crash in the original film Cannonball not the later Cannonball Run... I don't remember a Pantera in Cannonball Run but just in case I thought I would clarify. (IMG:http://images.amazon.com/images/P/B0002VEU8U.01.LZZZZZZZ.jpg) |

Ya'll got me curious. I've no TV, but I found a link:
http://www.starnesfam.com/Mustang.htm My first car was a black/black conv. '65 hi-performance 289 (called a "K Car" for some reason that I can't recall, probably a serial number thing), front disc brakes, "rally pack", trumpet style exhaust through holes in the rear valance. My grandfather found it in a barn in Indiana and I bought it for $750. Put about $350 (1979 dollars) into fuel lines, fuel pump, brake lines, coolent, hoses, belts, oil change, battery, labor and 104 octane fuel. Drove it all the the way home to Florida - following behind my parents car. Found out on the way home that the frame rust was so bad that if you hit a bump, both doors would pop open. If you jacked it up right in the middle, there was a 1/2 in gap at the top of the door. Definitely failed Dave's Big Butt Test. Anyway, I put an ad in a Mustang newsletter and a company, located not 50 miles from the barn where it was found, drove a ramp truck 1200 miles to Florida, paid me $3000 for it, and hauled it back home again in Indiana. I was happy - young, stupid and happy. Now I wish I had hung unto it. 18 cars and 26 years later and I am once again looking at more rust under a car that I paid $750 for. !! |

All my cars have been German, even the Mustang.
Beetles, Ghias, and 73 Ford Capri 2600. Made in Cologne. Great car. 4 speed. V-6. Dual exhaust. I hot rodded mine to death. Big valves. Headers. Lowered to street scraping levels. Looked cool. Sounded cooler. Ride was so rough that you couldn't focus your eyes. I never see 'em on the road, and wish I hadn't screwed up mine. |
