Ah yes. American cars from the 70s. Nothing like 6 liters to get 120hp, 0-60 in a dozen seconds, single digit fuel mileage, road holding to rival the Titanic, grossly over assisted steering, 18 feet long yet smaller inside than a Fiat 128, panel gaps you could put your pinky into, and quality that ensures you’d get at least 60,000 miles out of it as long as you took meticulous care of it and body panels that would rust halfway away after 3 Midwest winters.

Biased crap. Most American cars in the 70's were much better than the imported that really did rust away in a few Midwest winters. Mercedes was one of the few that came close, but wasn't much quicker and as far more expensive. The only thing the imports ( assuming u mean Japanese) had was low prices and better fuel economy in most, but not all cases. I'm tired of the BS .

For movie work; modifying (tampering with smog devices) the engines for some more power was rather easy, between opening up the exhaust, higher flow intake systems and, swapping in some slightly higher numerical rear ends i.e. going from the 2:50's up to 3:50's.............especially since achieving 100 MPH+ top ends was usually required.

Ah yes. American cars from the 70s. Nothing like 6 liters to get 120hp, 0-60 in a dozen seconds, single digit fuel mileage, road holding to rival the Titanic, grossly over assisted steering, 18 feet long yet smaller inside than a Fiat 128, panel gaps you could put your pinky into, and quality that ensures you’d get at least 60,000 miles out of it as long as you took meticulous care of it and body panels that would rust halfway away after 3 Midwest winters.

Biased crap. Most American cars in the 70's were much better than the imported that really did rust away in a few Midwest winters. Mercedes was one of the few that came close, but wasn't much quicker and as far more expensive. The only thing the imports ( assuming u mean Japanese) had was low prices and better fuel economy in most, but not all cases. I'm tired of the BS .
That Thunderbird looks great.... or did. No seatbelts ???
Try that now and the plastic bumpers would fall off
That man sure looked a lot like the Saint or maybe even a bit like James Bond getting picked up in the Jaguar. lol

I like the way the American Thunderbird sounds like a Fiat when it accelerates.
Somehow I feel a car chase is so much more entertaining when it's between enormous cars with poor handling that rock and bounce all over the place.
Sounds like they need to change the V belt or something tighten them up

It's too bad they couldn't get the performance a little higher on these smog engine T-Birds. They were a solid built car in 1975.

For movie work; modifying (tampering with smog devices) the engines for some more power was rather easy, between opening up the exhaust, higher flow intake systems and, swapping in some slightly higher numerical rear ends i.e. going from the 2:50's up to 3:50's.............especially since achieving 100 MPH+ top ends was usually required.
How many times they gonna pass that yellow AMC Matador? Roger Moore must have looked at that T Bird and said, "My God, not another boat chase!"
i got to chaffeur mr keach in a pick up truck some years ago. i collected him at an airport, we spent several hours together. i've always taken it as a compliment to my driving when the passenger feels safe enough to take a nap, like he did.

The Thunderbird had the 460-v8 in it. I guess that's why it caught up with LTD. The LTD should have been the landau model with the 460-v8. There is nothing like a 1970's car chase scene in a movie, especially when it's 2 of my favorite vehicles of all time.

I use to have a 73 & a 76. Never broke down. Always started on the 1st turn. They were such nice vehicles to drive. Both had 460 CI. The 73 I think was a 4 barel single exhaust and the 76 was a 2 barrel with duel exhause

Mine also had the power sunroof and the fuel efficient radial tires. It wasn't bad on gas either considering the size of the engine. Couple years before I wrote the car off the sunroof would leak so I had to silicone it because parts were hard to come by. I sure miss looking at those long noses at front when driving.

I was happily motoring down the road thinking my speed was around 55. When I noticed flashing blue and red lights behind me. I looked down at my speedometer and the needle was sitting at 75... The cop cut me a break and only wrote me up for 15 over the limit.
