Back in the day tires were much more noisy because the rubber compounds were more rudimentary. You could skirt off of gravel. People would make noise just rounding a corner lol especially high performance wheels. Even tire Technology was different back then bud!
I'm always extremely depressed..near tears most days. Yet sometimes channels like this help me escape my thoughts of current health problems, by reminiscing with classic film clips like these which remind me of better times. ❤
Start meditating man. Its not you sitting down with no thought. Its you doing something that makes you in the present moment. Depression happens when we are stuck in the past or future. Not the present. Focus on the present. Petting a dog or rolling a j is my fav way. I also meditate and “connect” to everything around me.
I want to be stuck in the past because those days were so much better but I do admit they stole my 1970 Plymouth roadrunner and my 1969 Dodge super Bee from my winter storage places over 2 years so somebody knew where my stuff was... But they were still better days and I miss them terribly@@bioshock9998
I'm so sorry to hear about your pain. I pray that the Lord Jesus Christ will take ALL of your physical, mental, and spiritual pain out of your life and your heart. I also pray that if you don't already know Him, that you would honestly ask Him into your life to lead you and protect you. I sincerely hope that you may find peace for your body and soul. Don't give up hope!!
I saw the movie at a movie theater when I was 13 it was held over 5 extra weeks by popular demand. Great movie. I have it on DVD and I also have the one that they made for television.
I agree. Superchargers emanate this whine sound that changes depending on the engine speed. I don't hear any supercharger whine sounds from this Challenger, so clearly it isn't supercharged.
@@77PacerStudios The whine comes from the belt. Theoretically it 'could' have had a Paxton/McCollough blow through supercharger, but no it just a stock 440 Mag. I always thought that was a pretty outlandish commentary from the cop on the radio. Just like the car reaching 160.
@@vincemajestyk9497 The thing about the 440 (like all big block V8s) is that it is such a gargantuan torquey engine (even in non-high performance guise) that it doesn't need a supercharger to go fast. But yeah...I call BS on 160mph too. If you had a car that was relatively light, with high enough rear gears, the right tire size, and well thought out aerodynamics, 160mph is possible. But in this era, you're not going to get there in stock form. I have seen a lot of posts by current/former owners of these cars and the consensus is that things get sketchy at 130mph. There are other 70s car chase movies where I've seen commentary like this by police. Dirty Mary Crazy Larry is another example. Larry jumps the Chevy over a construction site using a truck ramp. Later on, the cops discuss the incident and assume the Chevy was 'supped'.
@@jamesfarmer6039 All five were loaned to Cupid Productions by Chrysler for promotional consideration. Four were equipped with a 440 CID V8 and a 4-speed manual transmission, while the fifth was a 383 CID V8 with an automatic transmission. All sustained some damage during filming but none were totaled out. The car that hit the 2 bulldozers was a white 67 camaro with a 250 6 cyl.
Lucky me. I have owned my 70 Challenger since 1979. Today it is identical to the Vanishing Point Challenger except for a few things. I have a stock rear view mirror. And mine is a built 340 with a 727 torqueflite trans. 8 3/4 4:10 rear end. So 160 is 😂🤣🫤 not happening. But it will get to 120 pretty quick. Though I do not suggest it. And you will not be there long. I also have installed the 17” rally wheels made from aluminum 9” in the back 8” in front. I drive it all around as many nice days as I can. Also go to cruise ins and cars and coffee.
@@Paul-zz8lu. Nice. My second car was a 69 Charger with a 383 automatic. I let my brother drive it to high school. I paid $900 for it. I still miss that car.

I just got my first car. It was a 69 SS El Camino. The movie became a cult muscle car classic back then, we watched it at a drive in ,any times. It was almost as good as the 68 movie “Bullit”.

@@unclechunky4615 Thanks for the info. We drove through this little town a few years ago while driving from Carson City to Denver. It looked pretty familiar to me and when I watched Vanishing Point again not long after that, I recognized it right away, along with the curvy Highway 50 coming into town from the east. We also stopped in Cisco, NV on that trip.
You're not. I had an ex Wisconsin State Patrol Lieutenant's Squad from 1977, bought it in 84 for $825 from the WSP auction, 1977 Plymouth Gran Fury, 440 Police Interceptor engine, cop tires, slotted cop rims w/poverty hub caps, dual exhaust, cop charging system, heavy duty cop cooling, pinion snubber, cop sway bar, cop transmission cooler, tan cop interior, it was slate-grey with 2 chrome spotlights up front, the car was in excellent condition for a squad, had 50,000 miles on it, I loved that car, but I ended up trading it for a 73 Kawasaki H2 750 triple two stroke widow maker, I always figured I'd find another squad, I did buy an 80 Gran Fury Milwaukee PD Detective squad while I owned the bike, but it wasn't the same. Heavy duty cop equipment, but just a 360 4 bbl. Yes, I understand your attachment to MoPar Squads. They were awesome cars.

Minha vida se baseia nesse filme. Este filme me coloca bos eixos quando estou irritado. Pra mim, sem dúvidas, um dos melhores filmes já feitos além de Christhine e Duel.
Also no rollcage, the guys don't have helmets, and don't have stunt/racing type belts. The other guy even pushes the roof not to fall. They just took a stock car and rolled it.
I think the actual pursuit vehicles were big block, dual exhaust cars. They sounded spectacular and moved down the road fast as hell... That was probably a 318 or 360 Satellite that they rolled... Nothing like a 70s era Fuselage body MoPar Squad!!!
I noticed the single exhaust when it rolled over too! So, that '70 Belvedere either had a 318 or a 383 2bbl under the hood. If it was a 383 4bbl, it would've been dual exhaust for sure!
I wonder about those stunt men in the police car when it flipped over, no protection? Helmet in the hats I suppose? Anyway, that manoeuvre looks fun. Always liked stunt works with cars
@@RedEye19 No. First, even in basic rollcage you need at least a single inclined reinforcing pipe that is easily seen against rear window, and the other pipes are easily visible some distance from the pillars. Then, the center bar has to be behind the front seats, so it's easilly visible from the side. I've watched the turn and roll in slow motion like 15 times now and there is definitely no rollcage in that, not even a thin ineffective one. Another point; the guys that roll the car don't have helmets or any stunt harnesses. If you look closely, you can even see how passenger pulls himself against the roof. And rollcate itself becomes a lethat danger for a person not wearing a helmet.
They had Cary Loftin as stunt driver/coordinator. He told them exactly where to put that camera so they would get the shot of the rollover you see here. He did it in one take. Nice shot after that of Kowalski powersliding away from a stop. Both tires spinning shows the Sure Grip limited slip rear end is doing its job.
@@andynewman835 that argument is just plain untrue. So you're saying that all things being equal, a 500hp car and a 300hp car have the same top speed? That is impossible unless they're limited by gear ratio or aerodynamics. By your metric, a 100hp car and a 1000hp car would have the same top speed, just different rates of acceleration.
The Challenger wasn't supercharged it was suggested that it might be. So the Challenger and Belvedere would have identical 440s. Also, if the Belvedere has the 2.76 gears in the rear end and the Challenger has 4.10s, the Belvedere is going to have the legs on the top end. The Challenger will run out of breath at 100 mph. The Belvedere can do 125.
Also no rollcages or helmets worn by the drivers. In the roll scene if you look closely, they don't even have racing seatbelts. Probably just standard waist belt back then. They risked their lives to film this.
Vanishing Point 1971 The dispatcher states "we BELIEVE it to be supercharged." But elswhere in the movie Kowalski mentions to a drug-supplier friend that it is "souped-up to do 160".
Kowalski told his drug dealer friend, "it's hopped up (modified) to over 160 (MPH)", so on the straights he's been pulling away (into The Vanishing Point) from all of the cop cars. The police SUSPECT it's supercharged and that's why they think it's so fast. A Paxton supercharger COULD have been installed without altering the exterior appearance of the car. All of the Challengers used in the movie were stock 383 or 440 cubic inch Magnum V8s. Top speeds were likely 120-130 MPH, limited by gearing and aerodynamics. A modern 6.4L Challenger goes over 160 from the factory. Modern technology is pretty cool.
just two muscle cars racing down the open road with some hill billy music in the background ..simple is sweet ..man the tires on that challenger must of bald by end of the movie the way kowalski's making them chirp
Hello, folk, car chase scenes from old classic movies like this are absolutely better than Mr. Bean, SpongeBob SquarePants, Peppa Pig, Oggy And The Cockroaches, Say Yes To The Dress, K-Pop, K-Drama, educational language grammar, spelling, pronunciation, Math, national, world History, Science, its experiment, other school subject, Civil Service Examination, General Knowledge learning tutorial, quiz, dancing cute sexy girl, journal scrapbooking, stationery, art, craft, drawing, delicious food, snack, dessert, cake, or dish, drink, or beverage recipe, ASMR, coding, spreadsheet, slideshow presentation program tutorial, all electric bass, guitar, real drum videos including tutorials, reviews, and song covers especially if it's a female player of those musical instruments, greetings from the Philippines!
Oh, I'd say it's up there with all of those things--definitely ahead of 'Say Yes To The Dress', but equally satisfying as a recipe, or certain eps of Spongebob Squarepants.

All of the Challengers used in the movie were stock 383 or 440 cubic inch Magnum V8s. Top speeds were likely 120-130 MPH, limited by gearing and aerodynamics. A modern 6.4L Challenger goes over 160 from the factory. Modern technology is pretty cool.
The Dodge Challenger R/T is so much faster than the Police Car.
Got any Ups?
That's a very obscure reference but it is very pertinent to this chase scene! Good call!

Hello, folk, car chase scenes from old classic movies like this are absolutely better than Mr. Bean, SpongeBob SquarePants, Peppa Pig, Oggy And The Cockroaches, Say Yes To The Dress, K-Pop, K-Drama, educational language grammar, spelling, pronunciation, Math, national, world History, Science, its experiment, other school subject, Civil Service Examination, General Knowledge learning tutorial, quiz, dancing cute sexy girl, journal scrapbooking, stationery, art, craft, drawing, delicious food, snack, dessert, cake, or dish, drink, or beverage recipe, ASMR, coding, spreadsheet, slideshow presentation program tutorial, all electric bass, guitar, real drum videos including tutorials, reviews, and song covers especially if it's a female player of those musical instruments, greetings from the Philippines!
Oh, I'd say it's up there with all of those things--definitely ahead of 'Say Yes To The Dress', but equally satisfying as a recipe, or certain eps of Spongebob Squarepants.

It's a cult classic now. I have this and the remake with Viggo Mortenson.
A Dodge Challenger! Glenn
J'ai l'impression que George Miller en préparant Mad Max a regardé cette scène.
Must see uncut.
Why is nobody here mentioning the fact that they’re playing Dukes of Hazzard music in a vanishing point movie?
That is some driving.
