Gotta love the mushy suspensions of the 1970s time frame full-sized American autos!

Only scared of two things:

Something breaking

The cost of whatever broke

Yeah, the bounding, floating suspension is pretty funny. I also like how they "forgot" to get rid of the column shifter. When I first saw that movie, I thought that was the baddest car ever.

Funny! The chrome colored column shifter is visible when Reynolds is getting in car, then, he slams the Hurst shifter in to reverse......no column shifter present. The interior shot of the steering wheel doesn't match the shot of the windshield view either. Also, why no posi-traction on this car......doh!

Check this 1969 Chevy Impala 396 2-bbl carbed 265 hp ocean liner running close to the outer rims on corners: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ePisYhvNmF4&feature=PlayList&p=C4D0508110B725C2&playnext=1&index=25
