Don't know i this has been posted, I think it's from the TV show Alcatraz?

Anyhow, the ending for the Charger is different but same end result.  :(

1972 Dodge Challenger Rallye 340, AT, Code TB3=Super Blue, SBD=8/17/1971.  Yes, a Rallye without the fender louvers from the factory because of the body side molding option.

 That 6 cylinder charger did a pretty good job of holding off that 5.0 mustang  :burnout:

I knew the chase was bound to happen eventually when I watched the first episode and saw what she was driving. I was hoping it was going to be against an old Charger though.
1972 Cuda 340 4 barrel 4 speed that looks like a 71
2006 Dodge Charger R/T Daytona
2005 Dodge Ram 2500 Diesel 4X4
2006 Chrysler PT Cruiser Convertible (Kidmobile)
1972 Dodge Charger 318 auto
1970 Challenger 440/727 auto
1973 Plymouth Duster 340/auto (Making it Panther Pink for the wife)
2006 Honda Civic Hybrid (It doesn't save gas, it just diverts it to the Cuda/Challenger)
In desperate need of more property for my growing Mopar family

Notice that they didn't risk the old Mustang in that chase  :grinno:

   Close but no cigar!!   they will never be able to recreate that scene without some major car mods to both cars, although the Mustang did a pretty good job overall!!    :2cents:

Just 1 kernel of popcorn out of 10. :popcorn:

Where's the hubcaps falling off the Charger like in Bullit?

Can't beat the Original with Steve McQueen.

I think, more to the point, they can't recreate that scene on a TV budget. It was a nice homage, though.
