​@@SquirminHermanthe1eyedGerman The second "Gone" can't even really be considered a remake. All they did is jack up the legendary title and roll a completely different storyline under it. Lead character Madrian Pace becomes Memphis Raines. The only character name that I'm aware of that was in both movies was Atlee, played by Ribert Duvall in the second one and an actor that I don't recall in the 1974 film. The strangest thing about the character is that he somehow became white in the 26 years between the two films: he was black in '74! Madrian's love interest worked in the office with him; Memphis' was a reformed car their turned exotic car mechanic. In the first film, "Eleanor" was an orange-ish '73 Mustang sportsroof with dog-dish hubcaps, while in the later film she had morphed into an extremely fake gray Shelby GT500. The original had cameo appearances by actual, honest-to-goodness luminaries in the auto business (Parnelli Jones, J.C. Agajanian) while the second one was actors all the way, not a real car person in sight. I mean, they could have at least stolen a car or two from Jay Leno, right?😂

@@jeffrobodine8579 I think I got it wrong, Jeff. I juxtaposed the subway chase scen frome 'The French COnnection' upon the 'Seven-Ups'. The former was when Popey Dyle (Gene Kackman) ran his -Yes, same again, a Pontiac LeMans sedan I believe - out along New Utrecht Avenue in Bensonhurst, Brooklyn. Conta posto, 'The Seven-Ups' chase scenes were predominantly done in Uptown Manhattan - West 96th Street, then over the GWB, over into Jersey, up onto the Palisades Interstate Parkway and in New York on the Taconic State Parkway and the Saw Mill (River Parkway). The weird thing, of course, is that the crash scene is ostensibly located on the Palisades Interstate Parkway but the exit sign is for Briarcliff Manor over on the Saw Mill / Taconic (NY State) where the parked trailer sheers the top off Scheider's Pontiac Ventura. Philip D'Antoni was a consultant on 'The French Connection' to director, William Friedkin and a producer on all three whilst Director on 'The Seven-Ups', a once off. Combined, the homage to Sonny Grosso, 'The French Connection' and 'The Seven-Ups' , with 'Bullit', are singular examples of the pinnacle of 1960s and early '70s car chase scenes in a movie.

We wrapped the speedo past 120 a couple times and it would fry the tires on demand! I had a 81 camaro with a mildly upgraded 350 and my car would just only slightly out run it. we was impressed with how well the stock ol stang ran, the engine finally threw a rod from so much teenager driving and dogging it out . fun times!!

His uncle sold an engine from a GTO n his lot, to go into a Trans Am stunt car because they blew up its engine. A few months later, my first date with a girl from work was to see Smokey . Early in the run, so none of the excitement had started yet. We agreed it was a good movie

My great-great aunt was the biggest Burt Reynolds fan in the world. Her grandson was publisher of _Cosmopolitan_ when they did the Burt Reynolds centerfold where Burt was wearing nothing but his body hair and a strategically placed hand. He sent her a life-size print of the picture and she had it placed over her nursing home room door. First thing she saw in the morning and the lasst thing she saw when she went to sleep. I'm fairly sure Aunt Sal was at the Gates of Glory at the head of the clusters of screaming welcoming committee upon Burt's arrival.

OK, I'm still primarily a Chevy man (Corvairs in particular, believe it or not!), but I have respect for other brands, too, especially GM, but Mopar and AMC as well. Fords, on the other hand... well... not so much. 😂

The orange GTO was owned by a guy named Freddie D in Los Angeles CA back in the 90's when I used to work with him, I lost touch with him after that so I haven't a clue where he or the GTO are today. He could have been lying in which case he had a beautiful replica of that car that was pure perfection if you love the GTO.

Love the show, but I believe that the Dodge Challenger that was used in Vanishing point got a raw deal, it should have been saved, love the car, that was cool in its own right.

Mopar Collectors Guide did a feature on the original Vanishing Point Challengers a few years back. They interviewed one of the surviving filming crew members and he said that, just as your video stated, the cars were scrapped by Chrysler after filming. According to the article, Chrysler's PR guys were so infuriated that their cars had been used to promote illegal drug use and running from the police, they refused anyone the chance to keep the cars and destroyed all of them.

I read about the vanshing challengers and they said the cars were so powerful that they were difficult to control! I can imagine that for sure with a big block and a 4 speed and driving the way they did in the film! heck my small block 5 speed chevelle will get away from ya with no where near the power of a 440!

Anyone who couldn't get enough '68 McQueen Mustang engine sound effects (like me) will certainly recognize the outrageous over-dub by the producers of the McQ Trans Am scenes using these "sacred sounds". What an insult. BTW, several episodes of the TV series "Mannix" also used our "sacred sounds" to make his 'Cuda seem more powerful and exciting than it's 225 cu.in.6cyl ever could. McQueen Rules!!!
