Finally, someone mentions the original Eleanor and the Bluesmobile! Thanks for giving these cars attention and for the presentation!
-
My late husband had the '61 Rambler in the background in the movie "Its a Mad, Mad, Mad World" directed by Stanley Kramer. With Spencer Tracy, Milton Berle, Sid Caesar, Buddy Hackett.
-
You could make this series go forever with all of the movie and TV show cars that have come and gone over the years.
-
What about Dirty Mary crazy Larry that's a hell of a car chase movie or The Seven-Ups that's a good one
-
My oldest brother looked just like Steve McQueen & drove a light bronze Fastback Stang in HS. R.I.P. Robert James💔🕊️🥀
-
Eleanor was billed at the top. The car really was the star of the movie. Actually touched it. It was at a showing of the movie in Dallas. H.B Halicki used it in promoting the movie. It wasn't roped off or anything. People were more respectful of property back then.
-
Cannonball 1976 is my favorite of all. David Carradine and the red 1973 Trans Am!
-
And let's not forget the Valiant(s) used in Duel...
-
That's so cool. Love Bullit and Vanishing Point.
-
The French Connection chase was my favorite car chase scene ever..
-
The fact that the TRUE hero car of Gone in 60 Seconds still drove, many years later, looking like a Demolition Derby survivor....priceless !!
-
Great video. best movie cars. For me, 1970 Dodge Challenger driven by Kowalski.
-
What a great video! The time literally flew by! I could have kept watching if more cars were in the video. Thanks for the updates on the cars and some great memories of these films.
-
At LAST somebody talked about the original Eleanor...
-
That was brilliant, especially the information about McQ which is perhaps the least celebrated of the so called "car chase movies". What about a video on Ryan O'Neal's The Driver - surely one of the very best car chase movies ever made!!
-
After the film Smoky and the Bandit, Pontiac made the offer to gift Burt a brand new Trans Am, every year for the rest of his life. Pontiac reneged on the offer a few year later.

back in high school 2001 a friend of mine had a ragged out 73 mustang, 351W and automatic. the car barely ran when he drove it home, we did a tune up and rebuilt the original holley 4bbl and WOW that ugly old mustang sho nuff woke up!! We wrapped the speedo past 120 a couple times and it would fry the tires on demand! I had a 81 camaro with a mildly upgraded 350 and my car would just only slightly out run it. we was impressed with how well the stock ol stang ran, the engine finally threw a rod from so much teenager driving and dogging it out . fun times!!
-
I always thought the Charger was swapped out for a '67 Camaro for the explosion in Bullitt, but that zoomed in shot definitely has a Charger profile
-
Wow, what a group of cars.
-
the pinnacle of all car chase movies has always been and will always be The Blues Brothers
