William,

The movie was Mr. Majestyk with Charles Bronson, not only great chase seens, but great movie. It was a '68 F100. Of course, they were basically the same through '79. The movie was made about 1971 or so. They used seens from the movie in Ford Truck commercials.

My '78 has gone through just about as much as the one in the movie, and I wouldn't be afraid to get in it and head across the Mojave desert.

GM cars seem to me to handle and drive better than any other American POS, but they have never seemed to have the durability of a Ford or Chrysler. (that oughta' keep the thread goin').
