Did anyone else notice that the General was the wrong year. The one in this vid had the 4 round tail lights. WRONG....

And I'm in the camp that can't choose between them.

And the Bandit was missing the CB antenna on the back.

Wouldn't a bandit be a 400 4 speed car? Most automatics were old 403 cars...

Didn't notice it since I didn't fullscreen it and it was too dark, but looking closer they actually used 2 different cars. The very start it has correct 69 taillights.

It has the correct taillights on it all the way through. When he's on the brakes the tail lamps make it look like the quad tails but it's just the brake lights on.

The car in Smokey and the Bandit was a 6.6L/auto. From what I read the 403 was for CA and high altitude climates

There were several cars used in the movie. Some were auto, some were manual. In the scene where he pulls out of Snowman's driveway, he gets an obvious manual trans second-gear scratch.

As for which is better, what kind of fucking retard would take a '70s GM smog-engined luxury car over the finest styled / engineered muscle car ever conceived? You'd have to be dumbshit to prefer a '77 Trans Am over a '69 Charger R/T.

And this is coming from a guy that has very fond memories of a '77 Special Edition Trans Am (that's the official name of the black/gold package).

Damn dude, you were already losing your hair.

I was blessed from an early age.

Always wanted an old school T/A...

I've read that too, but anytime it was an in-car shot, it was always an auto.

And you don't think that thing could scratch 2nd with an auto? I could get my GTP to scratch 2nd gear. It probably makes more Tq than an old T/A though LOL

Where are Starsky and Hutch and Bullit when you need them?
