    Those GM trucks do not have names. They are simply C and K series trucks. What's on the fender is the trim level name and "wieght". C is 2wd and K is 4wd 10/15(half ton), 20/25(Quarter ton), 30/35(one ton) are the tonneage. Example; GMC C15 Gentleman Jim or Chevy K20 Bonanza. The trucks didn't get real names intil the 97-03 generation, which is Silverado(which was a trim orginally) and Sierra(also was a trim level below high sierra).

He's also had some cars that would really move including a 1965 Sunbeam Tiger small convertible with a V-8, a Buick Super Wildcat with a 465, and my favorite a 1956 Jaguar XK-140 with a V-12 and Electric Overdrive! The guy who owned it put a couple of switches in under the dash labeled "Impulse Drive" and "Warp Drive"! Even though my dad and I completely restored it, we left the switches just for fun!

There are no “American” cars anymore, The big three use many foreign sourced parts and build many cars in other country’s, and many Japanese cars are built in America.

Toyota, along with the greedy unions, has all but destroyed the American automobile industry and that's why there are NO American cars or trucks being built today. The unions forced the Big Three to outsource a lot of their manufacturing to cut costs. Otherwise NOBODY but the filthy rich could afford an American vehicle today.

    Richard Cline No, what killed the big three was greed and shortsightedness, beginning in the 70’s they started to make shitty cars with shitty parts in order to make the quarterly profits look good for the stockholders. At the same time the Japanese were not being greedy, they were investing in research and development, making their cars better and better. I used to be a buy American guy, but after getting fucked with two cars that didn’t even make it to 100,000 miles I bought a Honda, which now has 175,000 and still runs great.

    If I had only known! I had one of the Spirit of 76 Chevrolet Bi Centennial pickups. My dad bought it new. He had the dealer take the red white and blue wrap off because he said it looked too wild. After driving it for a while he gave it to me. I drove it to 1987 and traded it in . I last saw it about ten years ago in Fort Worth Texas . It was on its last leg . Beat all to crap. I talked to the girl that owned it and told her what it was. By that time almost anything that looked original was long gone. So today after watching this video I learned that only 500 were built! Ouch 😓

    My grandparents had a neighbor with a Riviera. Down the street was a Delorean. There was a Superbird in town also that the owner had a big blower and dual 4 barrel carbs. It was loud af. Saw a Bora and a Merak at an Exotic car dealer in Orlando back in the 90s when you could pick one up for next to nothing. A bit of a technicality but the first mid engine Maserati was the Khasmin with a front mounted mid engine design. The Bora was the first rear mounted mid engine.

It was loaded and emaculete! Didn't like the Riviera prior to that, but a deal like that was too good to pass up! I was going to use it as trade in for "83" Monte Carlo, but 2 weeks in, I was in LOVE! Damn the M. C.! Mine had the 455.5, all electric interior, sweetest exhaust song ever!

The movie was 'Dirty Mary and Crazy Larry' taken from the book 'Pursuit', the '66 blue Chevy in the beginning of the movie was a 1957 Oldsmobile Super 88 coupe in blue and white in the book, and the Charger was a 1961 Chevy Impala 4dr hdtp w. 409/4 speed, which I believe was hit by a semi instead of a train, and was two guys in the car.

The Rebel and The Machine were both painted red , white and blue ..The AMX was a Chrysler orange it had a 402 and four speed ..The Rebel and The Machine if I remember correctly had 390 for barrels both were four speeds...As I remember The Machine and Rebel were both stock but the engines were balanced and blue printed.. The AMX was far from stock its appearance was stock except the wide 50 int the rear and 70 in front ..now the engine had a 402 2 fore barrels and boy when it idled it just rocked back and forth he would reeve it up and the windows in my parents house would just raddle picture would fall of the walls the parents in the hole neighbor hood would complain "I was sooo Awesome" he dragged raced all of them. He worked at a gas station this is where he would buy racing fuel ...I miss those days to this day he still drives nothing but AMC the last I seen him he had a Matador it was a four door under a cover now this surprised me so much he had a ford Galaxy 500 2 door convertible with a 390 I believe in my hole life this was the only other manufacture car he ever drove ...yes he did have a Dodge pickup but most of the AMC lie had Chrysler products on them...

    The one good thing the Bricklin had goin for it was that it came with the most tunable, most grunt per cubic inch Ford 351 Cleveland.....that Ford motor is the best small block ever produced....

    Ford Australia took the "stock" 302 Windsor and 351 Cleveland up a notch with their own round of modifications. They had specific heads, cranks and camshafts, as well as installing alloy timing covers and intake manifolds. To this day, 2V and 4V Ford heads, as they were known are sought after. Ford Australia also persisted with inline 6 cylinders long after Ford USA gave up. They started with the 170 Super Pursuit inline 6 in 1960. By the end of their run, they had cross flow heads, double overhead cams, intercooled turbochargers and fuel injection. The 200 cubic inch 6 normally seen in the F-series was a problem for being heavy on fuel. Ford Australia took its 250 cubic inch cross flow 6 cylinder and made a long stroke version. Known as the 250 truck engine, they had the low end torque of a diesel, but were still relatively light on fuel

    Almost certainly a 1969 Dodge Charger RT. Relatively unchanged from the 1968, which I once owned. Between the '68 and '69 the biggest difference was the taillights. They were individual round units on the "68 and a long , slender one piece on the '69.

    There is an episode of the 70s tv show CHiPs that guest stars 350 lb 7 ft tall football player Rosie Grier getting pulled over in a tiny 1976 Honda Civic ,he was pulled over because the car was missing the passenger rear wheel but Rosies weight kept the car riding perfectly,when Ponch asked Rosie to step out of the vehicle , Rosie being an absolute giant got stuck & couldn't get out even with both cops pulling on him,finally Rosie had enough , he kicked the drivers door right off the car,then once out of the car he picked up the rear end with 1 hand while putting the spare tire on with his other hand,i laughed my ass off.

    The Rebel Machine was only available in 1970. It was also available in other colors besides the Red, White and Blue "All American" addition. You could have gone into a little more detail. 390 ci engines, 4 speed trans, 3.92 Traction Loc Rear, hood tach, red, white and blue interior. I had one. Traded it in 1991 for a 1970 Buick GS Stage 1 and $2k.

    Chevy impalas were very underrated. They were the largest body style ever produced. Some of them had performance drivetrains like: 350 horse 350& 2 speed powerglide transmissions, 400 small block& t.h.400 transmission. And if that wasn't enough, the mighty 454 big block. I think emissions helped kill this awesome giant and luxurious ride....well....it rode smoothe as a cadillac and shared the same frame and coil suspension. Actually, every GM big car shared a lot of parts with impalas.

    There was a Buick dealer in Raleigh that handled Bricklin's. Sometime after Bricklin shut down I happened to see back behind the dealership and I bet there were a half dozen of the things sitting there. Brand new cars with the stickers still in the windows... covered with dust and dirt and with tires going flat.

    There's at least one, possibly two in Manchester, CT. The one that I'm sure about is orange, it doesn't run and hasn't for the last 15 years. The one that I'm not sure about is tan and I've only ever seen it out of the corner of my eye. In the split second it takes to grab my attention it's always gone. Not that it's a badass machine, but it always seems to be pulling up to a stop light, on my left, 4 or 5 cars back and when I'm most of the way through the intersection, or some other strange scenario.

    I was impressed when I was 10 and saw one at a dealer. It had a sticker price of 10 k, I believe, which was quite a lot back then. It turns out it was a real P.O.S. A vanity car, made of other manufacturers' parts, undeveloped and rushed manufacturing procedures, sluggish door mechanism. It was on time for Star Wars and Disco, but still a shitty car.
