Two Lane Blacktop The movie

[Kirk Morgan]

I was in high school at that time. I went to the out door movies and watched most of those movies. There was a interesting piece on Bullet on Yahoo news the other day. Steve Mc Queen wanted to do all the driving and stunts. He wound up not doing the stunts but did all of the rest of the driving. It was stated that they only used two Mustangs in the film.

I understand the two mustangs in Bullett were a 390 automatic,and a 289 4 speed version. One would definitely handle better and be great in a chase scene, the other could do great Towering Inferno burnouts, especially with no posi and street tires. I noticed while reviewing the classic chase scene- the Stang and the mopar race down a street and go hard right toward the camera, in the foreground heading toward them is a BRAND NEW green 68 Chevelle SS396.Also, does it point out how big American cars were in the 60's? I sort of forgot that.
