Anyone seen or heard of the latest Charger destroyed by Hollywood? I found out about it when i went to see Driven the other night and for the previews at the beginning they had some preview for some movie with lots of rice-burners having races. They have a few scenes of a all black 70 charger(since Hollywood already got 68 and 69) that looks like it has a blower or something else sticking out of the hood. They show a tiny clip of it hitting a semi or something head on and coming airborn while flipping. Bastards, when will the torture end.

I guess this is where our sense of loyalty and pride come in. I ache to see a classic, especially MoPar, being destroyed. Yet I am all for the death penalty. We are breeding more people, there's only a finite supply of MoPar classics.

Yeah i saw it too It's Called THE FAST AND THE FURIOUS
It was looking cool (Black 68 Charger Racing Imports)
until you said it. its always the Guy in the mopar to get
Shafted!!! I guess they are really afraid of our cars
cause if they weren't Kowalski would have made it to
San Fransico on time, and the 68 Charger in Bullit
wouldn't have made that unexcpected Pit stop!,And
That Black 71 Cuda in Phantasm would'nt have done
a head-on number with that Hearse. I guess Hollywood
has some Sick Fantasy with Mopars and BIG explosions!
(at least they blew a Camaroup in place of the challenger in V.P. Hehehe!) Oh well!

It is a 1970 Charger. Try downloading the trailer for it sometime! There is an incredible scene where the Charger is lined up against an import and does this kicka** wheelstand. I think you can get to it at www.thefastandthefurious.com I have watched it so many times I feel like I have seen the movie.

Yeah, maybe I should have watched it in slow motion. What is an Air ram? Maybe I had better get one to impress my friends.

They use them in movies when they want a car to pull
a wheelie it's kinda like a wheel on a trailing arm in the center under the car and it has a Air Cylinder That forces the Car up when Air pressure is apllied it's kinda like those little battery powered Toy cars that spin around and liftup and make the annoying sounds look at the underside of one and you'll understand what im talkin about. Wheelies without Horsepower!!
