Rembrant Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 West bound and down, huh? Are you going to swing by Texarkana to pick up some Coors? Safe travels. I wish I could have made it this year myself;). Link to comment https://forum.garysgaragemahal.com/topic/2987-westward-ho/#findComment-37818 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rembrant Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 Rembrandt missed his chance to include it so I will. Ha! I was going to post it up myself! I'm tellin' ya, Smokey & The Bandit was a BIG part of my youth! I am happy to say that I did actually see it in the theater when it was new, although I was very young (went with my father). I always used to joke that there were two kinds of kids in 1977...those that went to see Smokey & The Bandit, and those that went to see Star Wars! What a great time to have been a kid though...Smokey, the Dukes, The Fall Guy, etc. Link to comment https://forum.garysgaragemahal.com/topic/2987-westward-ho/#findComment-37830 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't think of any I haven't seen at this point. Smokey and the Bandit is definitely my favorite. Jackie Gleason is a legend.

Smokey and the Bandit is definitely my favorite. Jackie Gleason is a legend. I've seen them all, many times. But it doesn't have to be a car/truck movie to have a neat scene in it about a car or truck. We were flipping through channels the other night and caught the scene in RED2 where the girl friend and Malcovich were in a 2CV. I've always like those and almost bought one when we lived in the UK. In fact I have a model of one in the shop. And I remember scenes where James Bond drove one.

No Coors this time, but I am going to be bootlegging some Head Country BBQ sauce, which is hard to find in GA. And...my favorite Smokey parody - it’s Archer, so apologies in advance for the foul language and toilet humor: Link to comment https://forum.garysgaragemahal.com/topic/2987-westward-ho/#findComment-37837 Share on other sites More sharing options...
