I owned a 1970 383 4 speed challenger, It's been a while (like 40 years since i owned it) as i remenber it had a small gas tank, like 16 or 17 gallons. twist that 383 and she was empty, didn't take long.
Cool car and The Music . 74 my mate had a Blue 70 440 RT Magnum here in NZ. Oneday at the drag strip Ruapuna he did a burn out for the camera's, left 2 holes in the track and got booted out. LOL The latest owner now has the car painted white ( because of Vanishing point) and fitted with a Hemi, funny part is he has the same surname as the guy in the movie. The car has been feartured in a NZ Classic Car mag. "Nick's Garage You Tube" for Mopar fans it is a top show. And the Doors music so special.
At 12 I watched Vanishing Point and Crazy Larry and Dirty Mary at the Silver Dollor drive in Albuquerque during the 70s. My teenage sister had to take me along on dates so her and boyfriend behaved. My parents thought we were going to a rated G movie but went to this double feature instead. I couldn't forget the naked chick on the motorcycle. At 12 that was something to see.
@@johnmcmullen456 I remember watching it with a girlfriend once. When the final scene came her mouth dropped open and she said OMG I didn't think that was going to happen... She said "that's the ending"? 😳
@@seetheforestWas totally shocking. Speculation over the years whether it was suicide or if he really thought there was room to get through. Someone associated with the film said it was the latter.
How I miss those beautiful Friday nights sitting outside on a blanket with Robbie eating lovey junk and watching action movies at the drive in .However there was an occaision when they put on Romeo and Juliet. Traumatised for life !

I cannot begin to convey or impart how happy this makes me. Ok, I'm a nine year old trapped in a forty eight year old dadbod, but Godammit the JOY CANNOT BE SUPPRESSED. THEY WILL NOT SIEZE MY JOY. This song has me grinning like a retard licking a nine volt battry.
