      For movie work; modifying (tampering with smog devices) the engines for some more power was rather easy, between opening up the exhaust, higher flow intake systems and, swapping in some slightly higher numerical rear ends i.e. going from the 2:50's up to 3:50's.............especially since achieving 100 MPH+ top ends was usually required.

      I was happily motoring down the road thinking my speed was around 55. When I noticed flashing blue and red lights behind me. I looked down at my speedometer and the needle was sitting at 75...

There's a reason why the car chase scene in The French Connection and The Seven-Ups which was done by the same Stunt Driver we're held as the greatest car chase scenes because back when the movies came out everybody that saw them knew exactly what cars were like back then and said how did they even do this. That are of stunt driving is gone because cars have gotten too good but there was a time where it took a true professional to do this

      Nova 2006. Totally agree. I once owned a 1971 Dodge Charger and that thing sometimes tried to break away from me even when turning at very slow speeds! When the road was wet or an unseen oil spill that thing was lethal. It aquaplaned once at 50 mph and I ended up travelling sideways for who knows how many yards fortunately without hitting anything. Chrysler's power steering system offered NO feel through the steering wheel so you spin around before you know what's going on!

    My dad considered buying one of those Thunderbirds, but was dead set on a Lincoln instead and ended up buying a 73 Continental which I ultimately learned to drive on. I think the T Bird would have ultimately been the better choice. The car chases in this era were far more real than today, not to mention the ability of the stunt drivers to handle all of that body lean. I have tried watching movies from the "Fast and Furious" franchise, but have never been able to stay engaged beyond five minutes of the computer generated crap.

      The biggest reason, a lot of the car chase scenes, from the 60's & 70's, seemed so realistic was because a lot of the times, the filmmakers pretty much well used guerilla-style techniques when filming. Some chase scenes were filmed without permits from the city they were in, nor did they block off streets, where the scenes were being filmed. So you ended up with actual traffic and pedestrians nearly getting reamed FOR REAL. That's what happened, during the filming of The French Connection. The scene, where the Pontiac, Gene Hackman is driving, accidentally t-bones a car, that pulled out in front of him, was for real and completely unplanned. Some innocent person was just driving normally, and unwittingly pulled out in front of Gene, because the street hadn't been blocked off, and got reamed. The scene was kept in the movie.

    Too bad they don't make car chase smash-up movies anymore. Must be the price of cars these days and NO, CGI won't do!

    1970s car chase rule #7
    If a car is going to crash into a body of water.......there must be at least 1 guy sitting by the water fishing who just happens to get out of the way at the last second.

      They were beefed up for the chase scenes. Its scary to think that these cars with that atrocious handling handled better than any stock '75 Tbird could dream about.

      @twoeightythreez 5 років тому +1

      Its a shame....the continuity errors are bad with this one. Even good car chases have them though. Love how the charger in "Bullitt" loses 4 hubcaps during the chase and still can lose 2 more at the end when it crashes :D

    It's something else watching these old movies and seeing cars get thrashed and bashed all willy-nilly like because they were expendable back then. Nowadays you're lucky if you see any of these anymore.

    Awesome chase his comment must have something special under that hood echoed something many ignored in the US at the time, handling. You will need something special in those wheel wells if you plan to do anything effectively except accelerate in a straight line.

    Noticed a little error in the movie. The scene where the Thunderbird gets rear ended by the semi and has a good amount of damage. In the next part of the scene, the rear end is still in perfect condition.

      Movies simply didnt have the multimillion dollar budgets they have now, and they didnt have CGI. the footage of the shootout was probably supposed to be in a different order than seen onscreen, and they couldn't just go close the road down and reshoot the scene with the damaged car (which was probably no longer running anyway, there's no way they launched that car into the ocean full of fluids.)

    The great thing about 1970's Fords (and their marshmallow suspension) is that you could be going 15 mph and the car looks like it's completely out of control.
