Nice video but that French guy is annoying!
Thanks for the link.

 

Great video. What is the function of the rollers built into the ground?

 

they were to start the fuel cars up, so they didn't have to push start with a tow car. instead they just rolled onto the rollers and another vehical or motor would turn the rollers then they'd dump the clutch and start it.

 

Very cool...we need someone to interpret the whole thing now!

 

France of all place's to find Socal flimage...!

 

Read about a new do***entry in the local Long Beach paper about 2 weeks ago. Ordered the film, haven't got it yet so I can't comment on it. But can wait to get it. Grew up going there, 2 brothers across the street from me ran a 61 falcon with a straight axle, and a guy 2 blocks down ran a top fuel rail, ****ers and Gerade (forgot how to spell the second name).

heres a link to the dvd...

DUDE That's cool! I understand just enough French that I can follow what he's talking about. Gret stuff!

 

Boss, *****in'!!!

 

Neat - really enjoyed the behind the scene shots. Thanks for posting.

 

That was great! Its funny how every now and then you hear 'garage' or 'plymouth' amoung all those French words. Couldn't understand him, but the footage made up for it.

 

I can't get it to play!

 

Ya got QuickTme player?

 

I think so, but since it's in french i have no idea what to click

 

Trust me, you'll love it. I can't wait for the next volume.

 

Quick time is just the "player" you need to play the vid. If its not on your puter already you will need to down load it to play it. Just like Windows player, Real player, Google player etc.

 

Parlez vous englais? What the heck do i do to get this thing to play???? It's all in French. All other guys speak French or am i ****ing retarded?

 

I understood you the first time when i said "i think so". WHAT french thing do i click on to try to play it?

 

With Quick time, it automatically starts playing. at least it did on mine.

 

AAHHHH, someone is listening to me. I THANK YOU for that! When i click the link a window opens asking me about Activex? That's all

 

Forget the French thing! Is there a big blue circle in the video screen?

 

No video screen or blue circle

 

groucho try clicking the square box that has a picture in it next to the empty square boxs (upper left hand corner) GOOD LUCK

 

Wow. The must see christmas blockbuster......40 years later.
Long live the front motor digger

 

Hey Groucho it should give you an option to download quick time player if you don't have it.When you get the player loaded just click the link again and it will play automatically "ya retard"Hope ya speak french.LOL
Cool video but,where can this be seen in ENGLISH? Dammit I don't do french!
