[@hopebrowning6300]

Nice car .had a Oldsmobile omega , same as Ventura, put a 455 Pontiac big block in it .Never got beat in that car and had many races mid 80's to mid 90's when it finally blew up .sure miss it ..should have kept it and fixed it back up.

3:35 since when does a 73' have airbags?!

[@gregharvie3896]

Hi from Sydney, Australia. from mid 1973 to end production of the full size 1976 cars from all 5 GM divisions any coupe, sedan or wagon (but not a convertible, nor the giant Cadillac Fleetwood 75 Limousines) all could be ordered with GM's patented Air Cushion Restraint System. ARCS was hideously expensive for the time, out of 19.4 million sold big full size GM cars over a 3.5 year period a mere 10,231 cars were fitted with them and near 7,000 were Californian government cars. So very , very , rare indeed. I have a right hand drive 1974 Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham Talisman (a special model) , it had been ordered from an aussie, Sydney GM Holden dealership, sent out as a CKD kit (completely knocked down) to be built as a factory RHD car. If has ARCS, also the equally rare GM MAXTRAC traction control & ABS combined unit. Back then from 1971 to 1974 we Aussies could only order either a Buick Riviera, or a Caddy Fleetwood as RHD cars. I've been the second owner of my black'74 Talisman now for 42 years. Your US NTSB in 2018 found in junkyards near 80 GM cars with ACRS, they crash tested ALL of them & after fitting a new battery, EVERY car's airbag went off AND all the crash test dummies fared better than in any modern car recently tested due to their massive strength and the Air Cushion Restraint System.

In the 70s a friend of mine bought a 74 GTO. In the Ventura body. Piece of crap. He didn't keep it very long

[@frankfarago2825]

Country hick car chase. Too bad almoat all the shots are undecranked, i.e. the camera is cranked at 22 or 20 or 18 or even lower frame rates instead of 24 fps, to speed things up.

3:30 Airbags? This is earliest movie I've ever seen airbags featured in.

[@Wildstar40]

I know right. The steering wheel in a 1974 Olds Delta 88 is not big enough for a airbag and they were never made with airbags.

[@rickgreenway1583]

+LincolnTek it was an option for Oldsmobiles but they had larger steering wheels if the option was ordered on a car. There are pictures of this larger steering wheel in the Oldsmobile sales brochures.

[@rickgreenway1583]

+LincolnTek It was called the "Air Cushion Restraint System".

[@chief1972]

Not true!Olds and Buick had an early air bag system for a couple of years in the mid '70's.Look it up.

[@Statimtek]

The old drive a cop car under a semi and chop the roof off trick.The epitome of a cheesy car chase movie.Well at least they were wrecking mostly AMC cop cars, rather than Mopars. I'll give them that.

[@billiebobbienorton2556]

That was my grandma's Ventura they stole. She bought it on her 65th birthday and they stole it. She was crying when she got home, groceries were ruined, ice cream and butter melted . Luckily the insurance paid her out and she bought her a new one - same color and everything. She also bought new groceries.

[@willschultz5452]

they didnt have air bags back in the 70s!

[@chargermaster586]

Yes they did it wasn't standard on cars til the 80s.

Air bags???? I didn’t see a passenger go off beside him 😂😂😂 Wrong to see an air bag in an old car

[@gregharvie3896]

Hi from Sydney, Australia. Watch the clip again , slow motion it, and you will see the bigger 2 person one does deploy but down lower WHY well in a GM Air Cushion Restraint System car there are sensors in the front seats, 3for a bench seat and 2 for a split bench, if the sensors detect occupants sitting there it will deploy higher up whether kids or adults. Very expensive option available for just 3.5 years, mid '73 until end '76. Out of 19.4 million big full size GM cars made in that period just 10,231 were ACRS equipped, and 7,000 were Californian government cars , so a very rare option indeed. I have owned a GM Holden, Australia built right hand drive 1974 Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham Talisman, it has ACRS, plus GM's MAXTRAC (abs& traction control)

[@illinoispatriot5295]

It's a '74. The '73 had a different grille. The '73 grilled had four honeycombs instead of two.

[@TheFlyinglimey]

Sorry, you are mistaken. This was the optional grille for the Ventura Custom with the exterior decor package. I have owned two, both hatchbacks; one Canadian with a SBC 307 and the other, ironically, an American cop car with a Pontiac 350 and heavy duty everything. Most Ventura Customs that I have seen have this type of grille in '73.

There is clear trick..... The interior of the airbags car ...is fully white........ While the chasing one was showing dark blue .... How come..... plus..... mercedes launched the first airbag car in the world in 1981 with S-Class ... the movie was produced in 1976 ... how come ....???? Please any mental explanation....????

[@gregharvie3896]

From Sydney, Australia. GM, no not Mercedes, invented and patented the airbag in 1972, offered to the buying public in mid 1973, shown and described in all the 1974, 1975,1976 GM car brochures for the full-size cars, not the mid-size. Available in any coupe, sedan or wagon, but not in convertibles nor the giant Cadillac Fleetwood 75 limousines. Patented as ACRS air cushion restraint system. More advanced than any other makers unit, then or NOW, as multiple mercury switch G-force sensors around the car measured / detected what was happening and deployed the airbags at lower pressure for a low-speed impact and higher pressure for a high-speed impact, there are occupant detector sensors, 3 on a front bench seat , and 1 each on a bucket seat , or split bench seat. If there are no detected occupants on the passenger side , the airbag will deploy at a lower pressure and lower down, watch the film again and in slow speed and you will see the bigger passenger side one deploy and lower down as the "bum" detectors did not register any occupants sitting there. GM at the same time also had MAXTRAC, a combined abs & traction control system, also pre-tensioning anti dive seat belts too. Hideously expensive, out 0f 19.4million cars sold in the US over the 3-year period, just a mere 10,231 GM ACRS equipped cars were made/sold. 7,000 of them were Californian government vehicles. There are a number of documentaries now on you tube that are from the time interviewing people who had been in GM ACRS cars that crashed. More recently in 2018 the US NTSB hunted down almost 80 1970's GM ACRS equipped cars to see if the system still worked, as there have been a growing number of fatalities and terrible injuries from more modern airbag equipped cars where the airbags did not deploy, Mercedes Benz was near the top of the list of cars where airbags did not deploy. So, after the hunt for the rare GM ACRS cars, NTSB fitted them with new batteries to make the circuit operate they started smash testing them with crash test dummies. Using multiple mercury switches meant few electronics to ever fail after near 5 decades, every one of the old dead beat cars airbags deployed, and did the job very well indeed coupled with the car's massive construction the outcome was better than any modern car test results. The NTSB decided to then send the cars into the crash barriers at way higher speeds than normal to see if there was an upper limit, this is when NTSB engineers found that the cars inner controls deployed the airbags at higher pressure if the speed/impact was to occur at a higher speed, this exceeds any modern vehicle no matter what the brand or its purchase price. Furthermore, the old GM cars that were equipped with the pre-tensioning seatbelts will pull your upper torso back into the seat, plus the automatically locking lap half stops under dash porpoising restrained the crash test dummies better than any modern vehicles seat belts. When studying the old GM cars after the tests, the NTSB engineers found that the front 1 foot crumple zone did its job perfectly, and it had been helped by the 6" travel on the massive hydraulic shock/impact absorbing rams that allowed that would leave the body panels damage free at the US federally mandated 5 mph. Using remaining cars, the NTSB engineers found that this GM bumper system would basically leave the cars damage free at between 15 and 20 mph, they massively exceeded their required 5 mph, but this helped in real-world high-speed impacts as it wiped off energy better than any other vehicles recently tested and leaving the passenger area as if there had been no accident at all. Same as in this movie. I have been the second owner now for 42 years of a 1974 Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham Talisman which is a special model also only offered for '74, '75, '76. My black one was ordered by its first owner from a Sydney GM Holden dealer as a CKD Kit car (completely knocked down i.e. parts) to built as a factory right hand drive car at GM Holdens Aust Sydney plant at Pagewood near the airport. My top-of-the-line car has all THREE of these GM systems, ACRS, MAXTRAC & pre-tensioning seat belts. At car shows people are amazed, but the Aussie RHD glove box manual has photos & describes all 3 of these systems, additionally the big 18" x 15" multi page deluxe brochure spends 6 pages to describe and depict ACRS, a further 4 pages for each of Maxtrac and the seat belts. For 1974 Cadillacs equipped with ACRS came with lovely leather steering wheels, which had 4 "arms" to join it to the central airbag hub and on the 4 arms there were 4 brushed aluminium horn press buttons and the central hub is nicely made. However, for 1975 and 1976 this wheel disappeared and a soft feel plastic version appeared for its hon press buttons small raised plastic rectangles appeared in roughly the same spots as the alloy ones of its '74 leather faced predecessor, additionally the full leather interior of the '74 Talisman was not available for the 2 final years of the Talisman and other internals had been de-contented also for the 2 final years, I know why, to lower the purchase price. My '74 Cadillac Talisman's first owner bought this for himself, and a "cheaper" standard wheelbase w100 Mercedes 600 for his wife. He showed me the new car purchase invoices from Sanderson's Mercedes Benz dealership in Rose Bay, Sydney, and the Cadillac Talisman's invoice from Vern Pott's GM Holden dealership in Rose Bay, Sydney, and yes, a 1974 Cadillac Talisman with 'the lot" exceeds the purchase price of a new 1974 w100 Merc' swb 600.

[@Patsik]

Jimi Hendrix had the same one. Worth $1.300.000 today. 10:40

[@MichaelsMustang]

I noticed the airbag too, maybe this was when they were developed ???

[@gregharvie3896]

From Sydney, Australia, yes it was, GM invented them, patented as ACRS (air cushion restraint system), also available via GM was MAXTRAC a joint abs & traction control system. Both were ultra-advanced for the time, and mercury switch G-force sensors around the car measured / detected when there was an issue and deployed whatever was necessary. I have a right hand drive '74 Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham Talisman, sent here to GM Holden's Pagewood, Sydney factory as a CKD Kit car to be built factory RHD, (completely knocked down, i.e. shipped out as parts to build a car with) it also has GM's pre-tensioning seat belts that lock in place around your stomach so you cannot slide down under the dash, also when the g-force sensors detect an issue the upper half winds you back into your seat secured like in a racing car harness. All of these items were hideously expensive and rarely ordered, I've owned my black '74 Talisman now for 42 years, its first owner ordered EVERY option except two, a thermometre on the driver's exterior mirror, and a sunroof. New this elaborate car was the price of a basic suburban home.

[@jonathanhudson4623]

Lmao, weak add post 71 shit boxes. From 72-86 you can probably count every production American car that could run a 14 second 1/4 mile time on one hand. Shits just sad. My 1989 formula firebird with a tpi 305 got down to a 14.2 and people were impressed with that. My box stock 2002 ws6 6speed Trans Am ran a 12.8 and that was with Cooper street tires and a 2.0 60ft. I got it in 2012 with 33k miles on it. The lt1 was pretty good and the LS family is great. The TPI was pretty good but the TPI intake was designed for a 305 not a 350. GM designed the TPI to go in the corvette but the GM higher ups didn't want a 305 in a corvette (though some were built and sent to California). The 350 tries to suck a tip flat at 4000rpm while the 305 will keep on pulling to right at 5k rpm. I race a formul a 350 that was exactly like mine, same rear gears and even same tires, but he had better exhaust and alot better condition car and I beat him every time we raced. I only won because we both had TPI cars and his fell on its face because it was a 350 while mine kept pulling because it was a 305. I'm damn sure glad the HP wars are back. My 89 now has a fully race built stroker 383 with forged internals and dart heads and has been converted to a 6 speed manual from a Lt1 car and has a 2001 SS rear axle. The 02 has a few mods, it just passed 57k miles and traps 129mph in the 1/4.
