An older style ford truck could take some serious beating and just keep going like “is this all you got? Come on I’m not even sweating yet” gotta love the 70’s cars.
This truck can really get it off road with 2 wheel drive, too. The thing seems to create its own momentum off road the way it just bounces and carries itself over obstacles. Amazing.
My wife's dad just gave me his 69 Ford F250 it's been sitting a very long time and I'm gonna have to put work in it but I'm just looking up the potential in this truck, I'm starting to feel really exited I have to admit maybe you should upload some vids ?
people don't even know ...such a pleasing vehicle ! I've had three f series from 67-69 do a little research on the movie itself on this particular F250 camper special used in this sequence-- they tried, but they just couldn't kill it.
I don't know how many trucks they used in this movie, but I doubt it was more than one or two. I suspect it/they where equipped with the optional Heavy Duty Special package-aimed at the construction industry-that essentially turned these F series trucks into Sherman tanks. My grandfather bought a new '69 F-100 Ranger with that package for his construction business, beat the crap out of it, and it was still running when he died in 1991. These things where absolute beasts. You couldn't kill them.
Honestly nowadays, I'm so grateful for any of these old machines surviving I could care less what brand they are. Ford, Dodge, Chevy or International, if it serves your purpose, more power to you.
If the I beams were not right, you would take it to someone that would straighten them. Keep the grease to the king pins and tie rod ends.you can hit every pot hole in the road
I just bought an '89 f350 4x4 with a C6 auto transmission and the kingpin D60 front end, I Also own a 79 Bronco with a 429 and a 4 speed and a 96 F250 4x4 with a 7.3 power stroke and a 5 speed. I also previously had a '86 f150 with a 5.0 and a 4 speed. Old ford trucks rock.

@@svenmartin840 LOL, maybe somewhere add a comment that the only thing still original is the frame and the doors, or something like that. 😅 You need to make one correction though…Ford NEVER put a 390 in a factory 4x4. It would have come with either an inline 6 (just the 300 I think, not sure) or a 360 v8.
As a young kid, I remember seeing a Ford truck commercial that used those same clips to demonstrate how tough their trucks really were. I’m guessing it was in the mid-1970s.
At least two different trucks are used in the movie. Sometimes there's a filler neck for an in cab gas tank, and other times there is not. Also, pay attention to the steering wheel. Sometimes it's blue and has a horn ring. Other times it's black and no horn ring. I believe it's blue when he's driving and black while she's driving, at least in the scenes I noticed.
They tried this chase with various pickup models, They all exploded, And there wasn't even a hair out of place on bronsons moustach, Then the director said bring in a ford ;-)

@@sludge8506 NAH , It's a Ford! Fantastic! You can't kill an old Ford truck, l know l was a truck mechanic and body repair man for over 34 years at New car and truck Dealerships. We didn't make much money on Ford trucks, but Chevy , oh yeah, cause they broke down so much. On the average 7 chevy trucks would be in shop for every 1 Ford truck. But to be honest, these last few years l don't think the Ford truck is the same tough animal. Back in the early 60s l was working in a very big farm in S. California loading trailers for the Appodaca Ranch in the Coachella valley. Sometimes the tractors couldn't keep up with the loaded trailers, owners of pickups would be asked to help pull the loaded trailers (about 7 thousand lbs. Incl. trailer) from the field to packing warehouse thru the loose rows of sand and dirt , we the loaders would sit back and have fun seeing which pickup could haul out and which couldn't. Sometimes we would even place bets. All of the Fords, Internationals, most of the Dodges could pull the trailers out of the field and on down the road to the packery. Sorry to say but alot of the chevy trucks couldn't, some broke axles, driveshafts, burnt clutches, and other stuff. The only GM truck that kept working without breaking down was a 59 GMC, it had a 6 cyl motor, with three on the tree!!! The owner said it was really a 3/4 ton truck. Also he said the reason his truck pulled well on loose dirt and sand was because his 59 GMC had 3/4 ton leaf springs instead of the rear coil springs the other GM had.There were no Toyotas, Nissans trucks at that time. But yeah , l don't think these later model Ford trucks are as hard working as the older ones. My opinion.
1970 Dodge Monoco , 1971 Plymouth Fury III , 1972 Ford LTD Brougham Convertable , and of course 1969 Ford F100 . So many other great vehicals were used in this great movie as well . From United Artists Pictures in 1974 while still part of Transamerica Corporation .

Not a Brougham on the Ford convertible. The Brougham had the cornering light. I had a 1971 model in green and just sold a 19672 Brougham 2 door hardtop with the cornering light.
Back when Ford trucks were the name in durability, and for regenerating headlights. An uncommon featured option that many seldom purchased due to the $80 price. Though curiously many trucks and cars used in movies had the option. And the mysterious telephone pole section launcher mounted in the floor, another rare casual option.

I had a 72 F-100 in the same mint green paint. My 2016 F-350 is not as tough as that 72 F-100. It can haul more but it is not as tough as jumps of any kind would fold the suspension. There were at least two trucks in the movie. The one that did the jumps had the gas tank re-located to the front of the bed. That was a popular modification for that series truck.
the crew was told to go into town and find some trucks to use in the movie. they came back with two f-1oo's bought off a used car lot, the trucks were unmodified for the film. yep true story
Ek is hier vir jou that's how i use to do your xx asian with your lover so oor eden marilyn mayana caraway i love i will carry you are you show me the small and how you care about me when you get what you that you can your chance to redeem ive lost my vrou you have my love again
3:20 Bronson really liked that move... it is also in Yukon, where he kicks open the door of his cabin lying on the back. Following that movie, I had successfully applied that when I realised one of my housemates wanted to ambush me by my door with a squirt gun: he ripped the door open and shot in to the room - and I totally got him lying on the floor on my back behind the door :)
I had a 1972 F100 and it took a beating; but if i would have drove it like that it probably would have lasted 16 minutes or i would have been DEAD! really because years ago i did take a jump like that (one in the movie with Charles Bronson) is when i hit the bottom of the jump (in a 1960 F100) i bounced off the seat 3X hitting my head on the roof top 2x and it hurt i didnot want that jump ever again. I heard long ago a stunt man that made one of those big jumps died in that pickup truck. I wonder how many of those pickup trucks they totaled out? It's a real shame too because these great old movies total out many antique collector cars and trucks. Got love that old F100's had many of them, and bought them even if they were just sitting in a old abandoned prune orchard.
A 1960 didn’t have the twin I-beam suspension (introduced in the 1965 model trucks). Not sure how much difference that would have made, but this video highlights that suspension, albeit exaggerating it’s capabilities a bit. I can’t imagine how much bouncing around in these trucks would hurt though. No way I’m trying in my 70!
They used Fords so often in run of the mill movie car chases back then because Fords stayed together better during the rough stuff. You don't see many GM cars in chases back then. They are almost always Fords and Chryslers. The French Connection car chase and Smokey and the Bandit are the few exceptions I can think of.
Dodge power wagon trucks were really strong back then. I really liked the old leaf suspension on these trucks They didn't give you a comfortable ride but they could take a beating. .
If you have a 2wd straight six f100 there is no hill you can't jump , no trail you can't run , no corner you can't drift & no motorist you can't murder and you don't even have change gears once.
I really think they only used 1 truck in this. I cant spot ANY differences in scenes besides the headlight switching sides, which, eh whatever. But usually, spicially in fast paced type chase scenes theres SOME difference you can tell between the vehicles. But that old 67/68 Ford seemed to have taken the entire beating by itself.
The damaged headlight not only switched sides, (from left to right), the truck also miraculously repaired itself a few times during the chase. Yes, some if this comes from scenes being shot out of order of where they ended up in the movie, but Im sure they used more than one truck. Even if they managed it all with one truck, obviously it was repaired after each big jump. All you people thinking it just kept going are delusional.
R I P Charles Bronson as Majestyk to Al letterei as the Villianous Renda .Fab movie from 1974 ,Death Wish premiered also with Charlie Bronson as Paul Kersey .
Lol...no car and nobody is as tough as Hollywood depicts. Vehicles in movies laugh off a beating that in real life would disable the vehicle instantly, but they also blow up in a 10 mph crash that in real life cars drive away from barely damaged ahh....the irony of movies :D
I can tell they used at least 3 different trucks to shoot this. If you look at some of the details such as the front wheels & tires as well as the broken headlights you can tell.
did you notice the steering wheel color change ? but for real this scene would've taken 13 Hondas just to jump into the corn field. people don't even know The F250 is like a '49 ford tractor with a truck body and a v-8 ...such a pleasing vehicle ! I've had three f series from 67-69 do a little research on the movie itself on this particular F250 camper special used in this sequence-- they tried, but they just couldn't kill it.
At least two trucks. The first scene and the last scene trucks have a fuel filler cap behind the drivers door. The truck in the chase sequence has only a fuel tank in the bed with a filler cap on the passenger side, the place where the stock filler cap would be has a plate or patch mounted on the inside of the body.
It's True !! people don't even know like a '49 ford tractor with a truck body and a v-8 ...such a pleasing vehicle ! I've had three f series from 67-69 do a little research on the movie itself on this particular F250 camper special used in this sequence-- they tried, but they just couldn't kill it.
Charlie was born in 1921 I never realized during the heyday in the seventies of his action films he was in his fifties when he was doing those things I thought it was only in his early forties
I remember reading a Hot Rod magazine a long time ago. It was about movie cars and how many they used during filming. I'm sure they said they only used one Ford truck in Mr. Majestic. In Bullit they bought 2 chargers but only needed one. But they went through 6 to 8 mustangs. They said everytime the mustang jumped a hill the shock towers collapsed.
i can remember reading in a car magazine about how the mustangs were sent to a shop before the filming started to have some upgrades similar to the monte carlo bar and export brace (used on Shelby mustangs) to beef-up and triangulate the shock towers with the cowl seam at the top of the firewall. story was only three mustangs were used in the film. the least damaged escaped the crusher and is owned by somone in the U.S. Steve McQueen tried more than once to buy it ,but he wasn't successful. one of the others was crushed and the other one supposedly also escaped the crusher and turned up neglected somewhere in mexico.
Bob White ... A few weeks ago, one of the guys I work with went to Las Vegas for a big show. He showed me pictures of an authenticated Bullitt Mustang. It's in unrestored, but well preserved condition.
@@JW...-oj5iw very interesting. the family that own's one, that wasn't interested in selling to McQueen, has supposedly shown it around the country or loaned it to a museum? maybe that's it. or the one from mexico? the magazine article i read years ago showed a photo of the custom shock tower bracing to the best of my recollection. however, it's possible only the mustangs used for stunt scenes had the shock tower mods and the one(s) used for normal scenes didn't.
Did you notice when the car flipped over the piece of the telephone pole was ejected from the bottom of the trunk to make the car flip that's where they used to do it in the good old days

Great scene, but the two trucks are 1968's, not 1969's. Fairly subtle difference on the steel grills, but the lack of reflectors under the taillights is a dead give away.

I miss the old days before some looser with a computer ruined car chases. And remember kiddies this is why you fill your tank at half full and back into parking spots.
This makes me proud to own a 69' F100. Arguably toughest truck ever built.
Alpiin There is no argument
Yes 390 big block big steal
Especially if you can keep changing out the truck.
Had a f 100 1973 390 three on the column she ripped
Hilux is the toughest. That’s official.

all those older trucks could be beaten hard,when I was younger I severely beat both Ford and Gm trucks,never owned aDodge so I can not speak for them.
How Charles Bronson was able to stay in the bed of that F-100, and not be thrown out, is nothing short of a miracle!!
He is majestic
Movie Magic!
I doubt Bronson in the bed of the truck at any point.

the crew was told to go into town and find some trucks to use in the movie. they came back with two f-1oo's bought off a used car lot, the trucks were unmodified for the film. yep true story
Try watching Duke's of Hazard, the all-time king of the self-healing car
"Daddy my hat flew off!" @ 3:33.
Cody Haviland lmao
Smokey and the Bandit. "Shut up Junior! You little tick turd."

BUILT FORD TOUGH!
Time-x ford truck -takes a lickin & keeps on tickin ford trucks built tough! ! !
3:20 Bronson really liked that move... it is also in Yukon, where he kicks open the door of his cabin lying on the back. Following that movie, I had successfully applied that when I realised one of my housemates wanted to ambush me by my door with a squirt gun: he ripped the door open and shot in to the room - and I totally got him lying on the floor on my back behind the door :)
You talking about Death Hunt - great movie based on true story with Lee Marvin and very hot Angie Dickenson.
1969 ford f100 camper special Raptor edition.
THE BEST CAR CHASES IN MOVIE HISTORY! 😎😎😎
69' Ford F 150 like a Ford 17' Raptor 👍
Mario Pérez The F150 did not come out untill 1975 that is a 1968 F100.
Except it can actually haul shit
When I get an F-100, I'm gonna paint Majestyk Brand Melons on the door
I had a 1972 F100 and it took a beating; but if i would have drove it like that it probably would have lasted 16 minutes or i would have been DEAD! really because years ago i did take a jump like that (one in the movie with Charles Bronson) is when i hit the bottom of the jump (in a 1960 F100) i bounced off the seat 3X hitting my head on the roof top 2x and it hurt i didnot want that jump ever again. I heard long ago a stunt man that made one of those big jumps died in that pickup truck. I wonder how many of those pickup trucks they totaled out? It's a real shame too because these great old movies total out many antique collector cars and trucks. Got love that old F100's had many of them, and bought them even if they were just sitting in a old abandoned prune orchard.
A 1960 didn’t have the twin I-beam suspension (introduced in the 1965 model trucks). Not sure how much difference that would have made, but this video highlights that suspension, albeit exaggerating it’s capabilities a bit.
I can’t imagine how much bouncing around in these trucks would hurt though. No way I’m trying in my 70!
First time I looked at that in decades. There's at least two F-100s used to make it last. Deep wheels, stock wheels, black & a blue steering wheel.
this is a great movie
A great pick up truck😃😃
Trucks, champ, trucks.
Another good pick up jumping is the Power wagon from Simon and Simon and the GMC from Fall Guy.
They used Fords so often in run of the mill movie car chases back then because Fords stayed together better during the rough stuff. You don't see many GM cars in chases back then. They are almost always Fords and Chryslers. The French Connection car chase and Smokey and the Bandit are the few exceptions I can think of.
Dodge power wagon trucks were really strong back then. I really liked the old leaf suspension on these trucks They didn't give you a comfortable ride but they could take a beating. .
scdevon ... The Seven Ups
If you have a 2wd straight six f100 there is no hill you can't jump , no trail you can't run , no corner you can't drift & no motorist you can't murder and you don't even have change gears once.
Truck probably had 352 or 360
Donny Bra if you listen hard you can tell it’s a straight 6
When he makes it lug it sounds like a i6 wot sounds good like a 8
don't laugh, these older trucks were well built, I remember the old Dodge Power Wagons, they were really strong too my best friend had one.
BustedWalletGarage it has a 304 V8 because that was the stock motor for the majority of the f100's (if I'm not mistaken)
Charlie B was one bad dude!!!! And his lady friend had the skills!!! Cool channel!

I just saw the movie on the CHARGE! Network. Last line: Hey lieutenant. You were right, he really was trying to kill me.
I really think they only used 1 truck in this. I cant spot ANY differences in scenes besides the headlight switching sides, which, eh whatever. But usually, spicially in fast paced type chase scenes theres SOME difference you can tell between the vehicles. But that old 67/68 Ford seemed to have taken the entire beating by itself.
The damaged headlight not only switched sides, (from left to right), the truck also miraculously repaired itself a few times during the chase. Yes, some if this comes from scenes being shot out of order of where they ended up in the movie, but Im sure they used more than one truck.
Even if they managed it all with one truck, obviously it was repaired after each big jump. All you people thinking it just kept going are delusional.
@@twoeightythreez Actually they only used one truck in that movie and kept that same truck working at the studio for years after.
A third grader could see that there are at least two different trucks. 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
R I P Charles Bronson as Majestyk to Al letterei as the Villianous Renda .Fab movie from 1974 ,Death Wish premiered also with Charlie Bronson as Paul Kersey .
Back when cars were built like trucks and trucks were built like tanks
Lol...no car and nobody is as tough as Hollywood depicts.
Vehicles in movies laugh off a beating that in real life would disable the vehicle instantly, but they also blow up in a 10 mph crash that in real life cars drive away from barely damaged ahh....the irony of movies :D
I hate to tell you guys this, but the truck used was actually a 1968.
Mike Henry they're practically the same truck
I can tell they used at least 3 different trucks to shoot this. If you look at some of the details such as the front wheels & tires as well as the broken headlights you can tell.
did you notice the steering wheel color change ?
but for real
this scene would've taken 13 Hondas just to jump into the corn field.
people don't even know
The F250 is like a '49 ford tractor with a truck body and a v-8
...such a pleasing vehicle !
I've had three f series from 67-69
do a little research on the movie itself on this particular F250 camper special used in this sequence-- they tried, but they just couldn't kill it.
Linda Cristal where are you babe!
At least two trucks.
The first scene and the last scene trucks have a fuel filler cap behind the drivers door. The truck in the chase sequence has only a fuel tank in the bed with a filler cap on the passenger side, the place where the stock filler cap would be has a plate or patch mounted on the inside of the body.
3:40 - you can see the charge they used to make sure the car flipped - and the white smoke from the hole in the floorboard.
Good times !
Those tunnels are in cañon City Colorado. It's called tunnel drive. Walked them so many times
twin i beam !!
When motor companies used to make trucks and not plastic toys

"ain't no way he can get out" Dude just runs out and jumps in a truck. "well sh*t, we didn't think of that"...
Move over KITT & General Lee & let a master show you how it's done.
Yeah it was uncle Jesse's truck all along!
Charlie was born in 1921 I never realized during the heyday in the seventies of his action films he was in his fifties when he was doing those things I thought it was only in his early forties
I thought he was early 80s, now I have to watch every movie now. He once drove my car in a movie 😁
I noticed the damaged headlight switches sides.
Its built Ford Tough!.
great edit, made me laffs
Lovely movie! They don't televise them anymore they keep on showing, Rambo, Rocky, Die hard , Terminator, saga over and over again.
I remember reading a Hot Rod magazine a long time ago. It was about movie cars and how many they used during filming. I'm sure they said they only used one Ford truck in Mr. Majestic. In Bullit they bought 2 chargers but only needed one. But they went through 6 to 8 mustangs. They said everytime the mustang jumped a hill the shock towers collapsed.
i can remember reading in a car magazine about how the mustangs were sent to a shop before the filming started to have some upgrades similar to the monte carlo bar and export brace (used on Shelby mustangs) to beef-up and triangulate the shock towers with the cowl seam at the top of the firewall. story was only three mustangs were used in the film. the least damaged escaped the crusher and is owned by somone in the U.S. Steve McQueen tried more than once to buy it ,but he wasn't successful. one of the others was crushed and the other one supposedly also escaped the crusher and turned up neglected somewhere in mexico.
Bob White ... A few weeks ago, one of the guys I work with went to Las Vegas for a big show. He showed me pictures of an authenticated Bullitt Mustang. It's in unrestored, but well preserved condition.
@@JW...-oj5iw very interesting. the family that own's one, that wasn't interested in selling to McQueen, has supposedly shown it around the country or loaned it to a museum? maybe that's it. or the one from mexico? the magazine article i read years ago showed a photo of the custom shock tower bracing to the best of my recollection. however, it's possible only the mustangs used for stunt scenes had the shock tower mods and the one(s) used for normal scenes didn't.
A third grader could see that there are at least two different trucks in this.

Real stunts, done by real people! And my ^ss said 'ouch' all the way!
Did you notice when the car flipped over the piece of the telephone pole was ejected from the bottom of the trunk to make the car flip that's where they used to do it in the good old days
That truck is like a Prerunner.
that should have been a ford commercial,, lol
it was.
It's True !!

You could never do that with a 2023 F Series
Or any modern truck for that matter.
@@andrewbraverman4511 or any truck for that matter
U should never do that in any vehicle
A Raptor would like to have a say about that...
Truck sounds like it has a 300 inline 6.
This is the reason why there is hardly any of those old ford trucks left. Just about everyone treated them this way lol
It's Not True !!
this whole movie took only one.
stunt drivers die but not the Fords !

Aaron Tannas all that I know is that I come from a family of old ford and squarebody Chevy killers. My dad has scrapped about 9 old fords because he beat them and drove them to death.
My favorite Bronson movie.
we used to take f250 1968 2wd around mx track wide open. Tie battery down good. Fuel tank in cab deadly though lost friends from fire.
Ford used the movie scenes in truck commercial but had to stop as hicks were flying trucks and claiming warranty on the damaged trucks.
Some people 🤣🤣
A new ford would popped the airbags. You’d need a raptor to do that today.
would like to see them do that with a 2018, bet it would be all twisted up .
I dunno, y' never can tell? I mean, I've been told all that PLASTIC-of today is , well...quite-flexible, AND cushy, too! (A Dodge Ram LOOKS-impressive..but like all the rest..that injection-molded PLASTIC-grille ain't worth a piss in the rain, for roundin' up a loose-herd of cattle...!) ☺
IN A FORD COMMERCIAL THEY SAID IT WAS A 1968 / NOT A 1069 / HOW DID YOU COME UP WITH IT'S A 1969 ?
Great scene, but the two trucks are 1968's, not 1969's. Fairly subtle difference on the steel grills, but the lack of reflectors under the taillights is a dead give away.
3:40 Look for the smoke from the charge that helped flip the car. Shazaam!
What kind of suspension that thing got? Twin pogo sticks
It's a 1968 Ford F100 don't argue with me I've seen the movie and own 68 F100
"Built Ford Tough"
Lmfao I can't imagine being in the bed of that truck during those jumps
You said it, I mean what the hell was he holding onto? I was waiting to see him come flying out the back but he hung on (to something??)
You can clearly see the truck bed moving as the chassis twisted
It's True !
so awesome!
but thats all engineered in !

Flying high again.
Does the truck bed come equipped with seatbelts or something?
Chuckles would be in a different county after that first jump.
V-8 performance all the way till chuck takes the wheel, sounds like a six banger upon startup.
Basically, the hot chick got the 8 cylinder, and chuckles got the 6.
5:36 lmao at that reused footage from not even 4 minutes ago
I miss the old days before some looser with a computer ruined car chases.
And remember kiddies this is why you fill your tank at half full and back into parking spots.
