yea thats funny, i just finished watching it. gotta love the go baby go button. that car is simply beautiful.

"This is a Nastar sir... not an apache..."
Great movie

I like the original better. Something about the fact that H.B. Halicki beat the crap out of that car, broke his back doing one of the jumps, and when the movie's almost over, swaps it in a car wash...Great flick, and perhaps one of the best car chases EVER recorded (better than Bullitt's Charger/Mustang chase).

-Suspect travelling southbound at 90 miles an hour.
- Stay with him, Air One!
- I'm all over him!
- Suspect has increased speed to 120.
- Maintain visual, Air One.
- 140 miles an hour!
- Do not lose him!
-This is an A-Star, sir, not an Apache.
- 150! 160! He's gone.God!Man, this guy can drive!

the 74 one i believe still has the longest car chase the junkman had the most things wrecked and blown up.is it me or theres more early mustangs in music videos now. fergie's big girls dont cry video has a 70 fastback kelly clarkson never again video has a 67/68 restomod. jack ingram's mesure of a man video has a nice yellow 70 mach1. most of them are best watched muted tho.

Last of the Mustangs. Last of the V8s. Eleanor.

The original car chase was 40 min long. There is one part in it that the car is almost out of gas and a few seconds later it is almost full. Fun movie. I found a copy on vhs in a bargain bin in 1994. I had never heard of it before, but it had a 73 jumping through a billboard on the cover so I had to get it. I got the dvd special edition that they released after the new one came out. I wonder when they will remake Smokey and the Bandit? Two lane blacktop, C.B.s and a truck load of Coors. I don't think it could happen now, it would have to be in the 70s.

I like the original and the remake as well. I think in the original, when he smacked the pole, he suffered some serious injuries. No computer animation in that one. Thats gotta hurt.

Take a closer look at the scene with the helo. He is turning like 6000 rpm and doing about 90 mph by the gauges, then he hits he nitrous button and runs up to 160mph. I didnt know a 427 could turn 12,000 rpm. There are other goofs in that flick, but that one stands out. I guess its the observational skill the military taught me, and the background in automotive technology/engineering/racing that prevents me from enjoying something that is obviously based in fantasy. I have a tough time with military movies that have technical inaccuracies also, so it isnt just this movie. All the Fast and Fictitious movies grate on me, and insult my intelligence.. :) Thankfully I saw them free in the desert.

Gone in 60 seconds is an ok movie and the car is sorta interesting, but not a great movie. Bullit has a nice chase scene but the rest of the movie is boooooooring.

I am a cynical bastige anyway.

The stang in the Kelly Clarkson video looks like a 69 coupe with a vinyl roof.

ORIGINAL: THUMPIN455

I didnt know a 427 could turn 12,000 rpm.



It's an aluminum 351w and yeah that specific motor can turn 10,000 rpms

Why does the speedo in Gone in 60 seconds on Eleanor only go to 120, isnt that a 6 cylinder speedo, He has Shelby gauges, A mustang Speedo, And a sport comp tach...

Didn't Halicki die filming a sequel to the original...........

ORIGINAL: jaw66

Didn't Hilacki die filming a sequel to the original...........


it wasnt a sequal but he died because of a stunt gone wrong

Speaking of stunts gone wrong, in XXX with Vin Diesel, near the end where the bomb thingy goes underwater, that stuntman died, and think Vin Diesel wanted to do that stunt himself.

My Eleanor on the Dyno today..
