Smokey and the Bandit II
I can't believe how much fun Smokey and the Bandit is...
I'm watching #2 right now - frickin classic. That car is so cool. Man, I wish the Duke's of hazard was on. |
lol. I consider the Trans Am (black, t-tops, cheesy firebird on hood) a guilty pleasure of mine. didn't care much for the Dukes though
|
Dukes of Hazzard was super popular where I grew up. I went to school with two brothers named Bo and Luke.

That said, I LOVED that car as a kid. Almost got a Camaro Type LT as my first car. :D -Z-man. |
Z-man, the bird hood decal is popularly known as the "Screaming Chicken"--even with the F-body crowd.
|
Eric - true - screaming chicken.
'Must be getting old -Z. |
Yeah, I eventually had to have a Trans Am, but I got one of the "1970-1/2" versions -- free of screaming chickens.
After a few weeks of driving it, I found it a bloated, rattling POS. But it looked cool. Traded it straight across for a '65 GTO convertible and never looked back. |
My wife calls thunderbirds "thunderchickens" first time I heard that I laughed my a$$ off.

hehe, we called them thunderturds
z-man: I did buy a brand spanking new Z28 back in '86 as my second car. loved every minute of it. had my lunch handed to me when I decided to chase a pack of Ferraris up 101 south of Eureka. man, that thing pushed like a plough. it was fun as hell though oh, and my first car? a baby blue 76 Ford Pinto two door coupe (not the hatch) with the 171 V6http://www.pelicanparts.com/support/smileys/shake.gif |
76 Ford Pinto - Got a Picture? It's got to got to be a classic now
|
sorry, no pics. (I'll ask momma, maybe she kept one) don't laugh, but it actually was a pretty interesting car. the V6 wasn't short on power and the car had the three speed auto as well. IIRC the motor was actually developed by Ford in Germany (or somewhere else in Europe - can't remember) for the euro market and was brought to the US in small numbers
