Vanishing Point

    COOL.

Notice the distinct nose up attitude of the car using the OEM alignment specs.

Sounds like a great time.
How did you figure out the route taken in the movie?

good question, we had to use alot of different sources from just about 2 or 3 different countries, its a long story but there is some partial info on the net and people like Ed Korycan is obsessed with the movie, he is one of the many people that helped,but the route is fiction,but they use places like the old us 6 in the hills of colorado, also a town called rifle(and we concluded he was headed east the wrong way),then Cisco,Ut just outside of the Colo.Utah state line ,now a ghost town but they crashed the car there,then some other towns like Greenriver,Ut, Austin Nevada (chase scene), also Gold field Nev.(Radio Station,)and for grins we did pass through Vegas ,but did not stop,there are more sites as we did not get to them all which is what we plan on doing in 2011 and the town of Austin is planning a40 th reunion

Anybody notice the hood flying in the air in the final crash scene? Certainly NOT a Challenger hood.

Man, I totally forgot about all the wacky flashback scenes.

I could be wrong but I thought I read that this mirror was used as the head of it was smaller and allowed better view of Barry Newman in the driver's seat?

I also am a huge VP fan.Must have ridden shotgun with Kowalski 150 times.Masterpeice.
That said,how do you guys feel about the 1996 re-make with Viggo Mortensen,and Jason Priestley as dj?

I love the VP movie, even the newer version is o.k. (by the way, has that on ever made it dvd?).  The mirror on that car looks a lot like the one that came from the factory on a friends 72 Cuda.  Or maybe his was round, now I won't be able to sleep until I find out!

its cool, but having seen the original, it was a bit of a let down.
had i not seen the original, i would say it was very cool. 


and i have both on dvd, but i cant say if they released the later one.

New one is ok,ending would be better if he crashed into Jason Priestley,instead.
I have about 10 to 1 ratio going,watch old one 10 times,watch new one,once.
When I watch the old one I turn the lights down low,light a few candels and make sure nobody is home.
