    That movie was filmed near here!! My neighbor owns the 40 coupe that is shown in the beginning of the movie. Afterwards, the car was sold to a local drag racer and then in 1977, to my neighbor. The car has been restored and is breath taking!! Pretty neat that it's not only a movie car but also has local drag race history as well!! Cool movie!!

    Bummer. I just happened to be channel surfing when I saw the listing. Still thought I'd get the word out. It was cool to watch. I hadn't seen it for quite a while.

    Yea it is. I also like watching reruns of "The Untouchables" TV series. Vintage tin in every episode. Wonder what happened to the ones they appear to have crashed?

    I actually found the 45 of the theme song by the 5 Blobs. Love to put that on now and again.
