Bullitt
For any of you who have not seen the movie (or watched it recently) go rent it tomorrow night. I just saw it again, and here are a couple things I have to say about it.
1. That's what a '67 Fastback should look like. None of this fancy "Elanor" crap. Dark, loud, fast as he11, and a toploader (torque thrusts and polyglas too ). 2. Jacquline Bisset. Wow, she is darn hot in that movie. I don't care how old she is now, man she was a looker then. Much better than these chicks in movies now. 3. The soundtrack of the car chase is the cars. No music overlay, just big block Ford, and OHV Mopar. 4. There is a comlex plot in an action movie. 5. Did I mention Steve McQueen? A classic for sure. On a side note, the Charger loses at least five hubcaps in one chase scene. Now that is impressive. I almost forgot about this brunette named Jacquline Bisset.

bullitt is a tight movie, and the stang is tight, but eleanore is eleanore though, both those cars are tight *** hell, and i think bullitt has the best car chase scenes. one special effects just driving.

I don't know I wasn't a big fan of the plot but the car chase KICKED SUPER ***!! And yes that chick was very hot, even though she is old enough to be my Grandmother. And there are alot of hot woman on TV now.
§am. Ohh.. and yes it is on DVD.

Were you at the auction in Santa Barbara that had one of the movie cars? I went down there with a couple friends and almost bid on the Boss 302 that was there. I got a chance to sit in it before and talk to the guy after it was sold. He was going to drop a 427 in it, if I remember correctly. The Deep? I'll rent it this weekend. That and the first 'Gone in 60 seconds' if I can find it.

bullitt
there is also one detail everybody left out. in one of the car chase scenes when the charger goes through the gas station and blows up.
thats where they made a boo- boo because if you watch real close you will see the gas station blows up before the charger hits it

I have it on DVD, and the big chase scene sounds incredible on DVD with a halfway decent stereo system

I love that movie and i need to go buy it. I would rather have a Bullit replica than a Eleanor replica. Something about a dark green 67-68 fastback with torq thrusts just does it for me Even though eleanor is a sweet car too.
Later, Nick
