But it's a Town Car, not a Mark III. Six miles to the gallon.

I always loved this great movie. The cars of today are way overpriced, fragile, overly complicated computer-controlled junk. Those older Mercury's and Lincolns were great cars.
So many cars here that probably weren't designed to be driven fast (or at least not this fast). But ironically, when you drive a slow car fast, you often get the best results!
You watch the Imperial when it's chasing the crop-dusting plane,does a pretty impressive jump,and a hard landing which springs the hell out of the unibody Imperial and pops the front of the decklid.
No, that can be right you blew up the contiental with there getaway driver after she got shot by sheriff during robbery and escape how cruel can you be guys.
I'm alive today because of a metal car, everything in those metal cars was three times the thickness of today's cars the glass the metal and the bumpers don't fall off and you can hit all kind of stuff driving to the house and come out the other side and bumper will still be on. I can't believe the public has finally given in to buy stuff made out of recycled trash. Today's cars have a description one whack it's on a rollback they can be made inoperable in a parking lot crash. Then it's on the rollback diesel truck on its way to be recycled for a third time
Yeah, it's night and day of how cars are now compared to decades ago. Things used to be much tougher. I am glad to have driven a 1989 Crown Vic. Solid as a rock.
Cars these days are designed to crumple better to absorb the impact for you. They are in fact, much safer than these ever were (not as good looking though)
So well built that the engine goes into your cabin and sits beside you or on you in accidents. Fact many cars that are old many panels on various models were not thick like some people think they were. The problem is many think because a car is big they associate and start to have a belief older cars are better for safety. Movies are movies and those cars are built stronger for stunt scenes. I like the older cars they have less electronics. There are pros and cons to old and new. I have been to many county fair demo derbys and those big cars crumple up quit bad. Don't allow nostalgia and a belief of thicker metal to convince you that you will be safer. You simply allow your personal feelings to over ride commonsense.
Maybe you just got lucky? New cars have a little something known as Crumple Zones......and air bags ......and anti-lock brakes.....and backup cameras........and so on, and so forth.

I always find it funny how car tires squeal on dirt in old movie's.
If you spin the tires fast enough, you can get them to squeal on dirt :)
Love how they're driving on a dirt road with tires squealing. Like how does that work? 🤣
I think there's asphalt underneath all that dirt, lol! There's more roads that were buried.😂😂😂😂😂
If the dirt is hard enough, those ol tires will squeal. @@77PacerStudios
With great Hollywood drama!!
Had that '71 Lincoln Continental be a Mark III, boom, you got The Car. But the movie says it's a 1972.
Shame it got destroyed...
Yeah… I loved it!
Back then they were just every day cars they smashed up

Over priced and complicated definitely but fragile no, they are as safe as they have ever been with all the modern safety features
Lincoln, Mercury, and Cadillac all were rock solid cars
Ahh, an old fave! Siegel and Peckinpah flicks were the real thing back in the day.
Thanks for posting this. I never knew this existed and went searching for it online. Great movie,
Same here never seen or heard about this movie Walter Matthau as a bad guy
Glad you enjoyed it
What all of us wouldn't give to have those old gorgeous cars back...heavy metal, pure horsepower and no spying radios and installed software 😐😐
🦁🇺🇸💪🏻
They are still out there.
@@mexicanspec they definitely are....and worth the investment to bring back such works of literal art and style 💪🏻🇺🇸💪🏻
Yes they are. I do my part to make all cars I get go back to 100% stock.@@brshnrllr
@@mexicanspecYeah, but they're rare and expensive
Those Lincolns are not expensive, the 4 door 1961 - 1969 models are.@@LITTLE1994

The second smash sorted the risen hood situation out 🤣
Driving withwhite Go-Go boots on! Very 70's!
and sexy
Cops was after my Hot Rod Lincoln.
Now that song is stuck in my brain!
Notice at the beginning that the headrests were removed so not to block the view of the police car pulling up.
This is a great movie, Joe Don Baker destroys an Imperial & deals out some brutality in the second half.
You watch the Imperial when it's chasing the crop-dusting plane,does a pretty impressive jump,and a hard landing which springs the hell out of the unibody Imperial and pops the front of the decklid.
The name of the movie is Charley Varrick, 1973
Thanks
They sure did build those land-yachts well, mes amis ! But, ironically only the canary coloured ones.
When a car could take a hard hit and keep going.
no kidding that was real hard core car bashing that Continental took out 2 Polara's
great movie
It would have been a classic if Ron Jeremy,and Nina Hartley were starting in it.
If I ever do a bank heist... I'm gonna get me a 1971 Lincoln Continental.
I’m getting myself a 442!
You'd have to rob a bank to keep filling it up 🤣
😂Soo much tire screeching on a dirt road.
No, that can be right you blew up the contiental with there getaway driver after she got shot by sheriff during robbery and escape how cruel can you be guys.
Walter was always awesome.
Still don't get why the directors back then put the sound of squealing tires on dirt roads 😅😅😅😅😅
Sound guys had a union.
Damn that car is mess up right that rob the bank 🏦 😳 😕 😐 😬 😒 but the yellow car does help to escape even know that was a robbery
AND WHAT IS THE NAME OF THIS MOVIE
GD that was great CCW2 is there any more clips you can find in this movie
1966 Dodge van 100A?
Why were the tires screeching as they were on the dirt road? That part had me scratching my head
By 72 smog was in but the push-bumper is next year.
The movie is definitely wrong that is most definitely a two-door 1971 Lincoln Continental
Are you blind or stewpid or both?
It was a perfectly good car why did they have to destroy it?
Vantuir
The movie name
What movie is this from please
The movie is called "Charlie Varrick"
That's the main charechters name played by Walter Matthau😎
@@thatfordguy2268 Thanks
