Try doing that chase scene with a modern Chrysler product!! The new ones are junk!!

[@saxongreen78]

I know that Chrysler was very fond of providing cars to the studios: in Australia they were exclusive car suppliers to Crawford Productions...Valiants were on TV almost every night of the week. (They also produced thousands of excess cars on spec in the vain hope of attracting buyers...this drove the second hand prices through the floor, making them a popular choice for stunt sequences.)

Yeah, that part looked really odd. Obviously, broke the steering and control arm but good. Obviously an accident left in the film. But what was the original intention? Was the stunt driver supposed to launch the car off that stack of railroad ties?? That little section stands out as one painful blooper in an otherwise well-choreographed car chase.

[@digitalmagicAR]

That ramp at 2:17 through the glass was risky since the car had to land and then make a turn out of the parking lot with a parked car in the path. If the landing damaged the car it might not be able to turn at all and thus plow straight into the car. As it were, it appears it may have still not fully made the turn without colliding since they cut the shot. This was a fantastic chase and made a not so cool Plymouth sedan actually look pretty muscular. I remember the first time I heard this on TV at home. I heard what sounded like a chase so I went in the room and watched it. Then looked it up in the guide so I could try to record it next time it aired.

The reason why Chrysler products were used so much in movie chases and stunts. Was because it took very little to modify suspension and cars for stunts. Pretty much turn the torsion up a couple of turns and put heavy duty shocks all the way around.
