@@bargainboondocker3420 Yup you'll get squeal on hardpack , back as kids some 30+yrs ago we stopped and did a burnout on some. We hadda stop and laugh our asses off after the squealing. But when the loose gravel is flying like rooster tails and it's dubbed in for the movie it's hilarious!
Yeah I thought that was in the wrong place. My headlight switch on my '75 Firebird is on the left side on the dash. And I actually thought at first he was trying to push in the cigarette lighter. lol
LOVE this early 70's Trans-Am, I think its one of the coolest looking cars in the world. Unfortunately, these cars were never exported to the UK which is a shame. Although there are quite a few that made it to these shores, and I have countless photo's of them from car shows I've been to.
COOL MOVIE!!! DAVID CARRADINE is a SUPER HERO!!!💥 PONTIAC is Just a ROCKET!!!🚀 Mind - Blowing Races!!! Great Cars!!! Thanks!!! P. S. With Love from Russia... R. I. P DAVID CARRADINE...🔥

1) Hollywood sure does love itself a black Charger. 2) How many fools tried replacing a flat tire with that guardrail trick...only to gut open their gas tank like a soup can?

3:16 Haha the old lady looking like she's having a stroke as the car gets rear ended 😂 That's right up there with those old in car driving scenes where they are sawing away at the steering wheel,and the next scene is the car going down the road perfectly straight 🤣
I love that year fire bird man!!! They were super cool looking about like the split bumper camaro I miss the good old days before covid and esp these cars and that spoiler on that charger looks dumb lol 😂
Always liked that body style Trans Am but that Charger R/T and Pantera were nice too. Two things tho... lol I like how David use some of his kun-fu skills on that sorry ass cop with a gun. And sadly enough I own that same color hoodie jacket he's wearing! lol
Ever notice that when the German guy says "hello there!" to Cannonball and Veronica Hamel out of the passenger side window, that window is closed? You can see the reflection of the inside of the car.
For the ones who asked if a Pantera could actually beat a Trans Am, it would be a close battle and come down to who was driving. The 1973 SD455 T/A ran 0-60 in 5.2, 1/4 mile in 13.54@ 104.29 and had a top speed ~165mph. The 1973 Pantera went 0-60 in 5.5, 1/4mile in 14.2@99.87 and had a top speed of ~ 159mph.
165 mph top speed for a '73 SD455 T/A??? Seriously doubt it. I realize Pontiac under rated the SD455 at 290/310hp(depending on year), but even with an honest 350hp, it would take pedestrian 2.73 or higher(lower numerically) rear gears to get to 165, and that would destroy it's 13 second 1/4mile time. I'd say, reasonably, with 3.42 rear gears and in a great state of tune, it might hit 140( and that's exceeding 6000rpms, which is over the stock SD455's powerband). More likely is 130 with the stock camshaft and 3.42 gearing. It's all in the mathematical crunching of gear ratio/tire height/rpm(and horsepower too). 165 and a 13 second 1/4mile just don't add up. Maybe a 15 second 1/4mile(due to 2.73 gearing) and 160ish is doable, but not with gearing to get a 13 second ET.
Well, I'm not trying to convince you but the Pantera only had a 330HP Ford 351 Cleveland and the SD455's actual HP for 1973 was more closer to 425 and the cars came with two choices of rear end gears, the 3.08 and the 3.42. So the Pantera was close to those same speeds so why would it be so unbelievable for the T/A to do it...plus I've been in a '73 SD T/A and witnessed it peg the 160 speedo. My 70 1/2 T/A with the RAII 400 and 3.55 gears would do an honest 145 and that is passed it's "so called" 6000 redline. The 1989 Turbo T/A had similar numbers to the '73 SD with a 301 RWHP Turbo Buick 231 V6 engine and a top speed 0f 161. I'm not saying anyone is wrong but unless you actually have the cars it's hard to know the entire truth. Nice discussion, thanks.
J Watkins SD455 with 425hp stock??? You realize the SD455 has a C/R in the 8.5:1 ratio, right? Unless it's super or turbo charged, no way 425hp stock. SD455 is capable of 750hp+ with the right parts, but bone stock, I don't think so.
J Watkins I thought the Pantera was built for handling... sure has that look at least. So forget the straight line racing and try some curves instead. (As in the movie, for that matter...)
Check out those rims!! Those are 1970 Trans Am only! Now in 2015 IF you can find them you're talking $500 EACH!! About 1/3 the price this car was back in 73. Hard to say if this T/A is a 73? Could be a 70-72??
+dennis joseph they are 71 trans ams with 73 paint scheme. when you look at the grill you know 70-71 but I didn't know till I looked it up and I own a 73 red ta 4spd. missed the grill.... I was thinking, that means it has a 455 HO. That's a way cool thing to see in action in the day. John Wayne had a 73 SD you can see run also. just can't get better than that.... unless the fake audio was deleted and correct audio was in place. I'd take the fake over none even though I dislike but, only for the movie's sake.
Funny I thought John Wayne was running a Forest Green '72 Firebird Formula with a 455 with a manual in it from the movie Mc-Q. Well that is what my dad said it was and he has worked on everything under the sun.
Back in the day, it was like if today a Camaro ZL-1 crashed in a film. It's a hell of a nice car, but no one really cares too much, as it's not a classic and is still in production. I don't blame them.
Cool clips... I always thought this was the best "car movie" ever... how about making a video featuring the green Mustang that the good 'ole boys loaned Carradine after he trashed the Trans Am, lol... that too was an awesome car.
the car the flips has rally wheels on the st when he says he has the same car then before the flip, it has slots and then upside down and burning has rallys.
Back in the early '70s the Pantera was labeled as the fastest production car, but that was probably top speed. I'd think the 455-SD Trans Am would take a win in a 1/4 mile race, then the Pantera would take over from there, lol.
atranfanatic It was sad seeing Trans ams going from 455 super DUTY s to that 301 turbo that had to be 1 of the worst engine ever to come out of Detroit
The Pantera was fast, but while it had a much higher top speed, acceleration wise it would be quite close to a highly modded Trans Am like the one in the film.
@leisel barclay Yes, the ones he kicked for the filming, but was pointing out that is definitely Hollywood - try it on real headlights. Steel toe boots a Must!
If you stop the video at 6:05 just after he kicks the drivers bulb and moves his foot you can _barely_ make out the grill which ID's as a 70-71 grill. Would be an absolute shame but not at all a surprise if they actually destroyed a T/A of either year. I wonder what year the other "T/A" was and also whether each of them was a real T/A or they just found parts which wouldn't have been particularly difficult to source. I'm such nerd.
Ok, Red Trans-Am, Country Music, Some 70s Porn Music-lol, Carradine kicking a cop-Everybody was Kung-Fu Fighting!. Some punk rattle rousing Carradine, Woman falls out of T-A driver gets shot car blows up. Purpose of this Movie. other than shows a Red Trans-Am.

For me, these were the best looking Trans-Ams.
Wooley689 1973 TA
For me is the 1977
1970 to 1973 for me. no better in the world
For me its the 79, .but I love all gen 2 Firebirds.
As a life long Firebird fan of every generation it's tough seeing them beat on but all the wrecked ones are what make the survivors so valuable.
you gotta love when tires squeal on dirt in the movies!
I've done it on hard packed dirt, once, but never in that loose stuff.
if only they could have smoked the tires on dirt it would have been perfuckinfection
Like in Roadhouse with the mercedes skidding on the gravel lmao.

Super duty 455 TA. Underrated horsepower, one of the last muscle cars from Detroit
That's not a 73 SD455 trans am. Interior and front grills are a dead giveaway. It's a 1970
Check out the scene of him trying to get the headlights on... That switch is a head light switch you'd find on a early 70's Ford!
Yeah I thought that was in the wrong place. My headlight switch on my '75 Firebird is on the left side on the dash. And I actually thought at first he was trying to push in the cigarette lighter. lol
Not to mention that's a Formula dressed up as a Trans Am. The dashboard is not a T/A dash.

wouldn't be as cool if Carradine driving in a Datsun
I liked the Charger and the Mustang as much as the T/A , too bad they wrecked them all
I gotta get this soundtrack.
awesome f-bird
seen that movie back in 73, good movie at the time,
I wish i could get my tyres to screech on sand !!!???
Back then spares where the same as the rest of tyres

Every single car in that film will cost a fortune to buy today.

Based on this film clip, I would bother to see anymore 😜.
goooood movie
Most realistic part at 4:35. Like in Dumb and Dumber, he coulda stretched out his collar,and said "No, it's a zip up hoodie, but thanks for asking!"
the car the flips has rally wheels on the st when he says he has the same car then before the flip, it has slots and then upside down and burning has rallys.

Nice TA but I’ve always liked the one in Corvette Summer
too much "movie magic" :D
Gloves?? Really?? What karate moves! I heard him farting every time he tried to kick!
@Kaspergaling Yes, the Detomaso Pantera was the worlds fastest production vehicle at that time
Faster than a Lamborghini countach.?

loved this movie made me buy an 80 trans am.But I didn't know at time that a 301 engine was garbage.Stupid me
And sadly the last Pontiac V8 made.

the wrecked alot of nice cars in that movie
@MrNativeman I WISH I COULD FIND THAT CAR.

That is sad , it made me fell sad. Nice movie but it made me sad:(
Yeah very sad
The Pantera was fast, but while it had a much higher top speed, acceleration wise it would be quite close to a highly modded Trans Am like the one in the film.
Now this is real driving with real cars.
Or was it 6:05 when Charger guy kicks out his headlights? Ever try that? Wow
