Dirty Mary, Crazy Larry has the crash scene between the Charger and the train.  Done in 1974 it was real without the special effects of today.  A perfectly timed crash.

VP.... the best by far.
The funniest thing about this particular signature is that by the time you realize it doesn't say anything it's to late to stop reading it.

Charger? :dunno:  I know VP original he definitely looses 1 when he goes around the first traffic jam, down that dirt bank, when he hits the impact forces the rallye wheel trim ring off. Can't say I saw any others though.....that that ring a bell anyhow.

I like VP, the original, haven't seen the remake, guess I need to watch it again, my friend told me about the camero years ago but when I slowed it down it sure looked like they crashed a Challenger.  I'm sure I saw a Challenger flat hood fly up in the air. Oh well, I need to watch it again anyway, it's always cool.
