Anniversary of Vanishing Point (March 13, 1971)

[MoparCarGuy]

Tomorrow, March 13th, is the 50th anniversary of the release of Vanishing Point. My cousin hosts a podcast for "all things retro" on his site, RetroZest.com, and asked me to join him to celebrate the movie's anniversary. https://retrozest.com/EP049/


We discuss the movie and the 1970 Challenger R/T which "stars" with Kowalski in his multi-state evasion of the police.
*pardon me for saying the car used in the finale is a 1968 Camaro versus a 1967. I knew that but said otherwise. LOL

SPOILER ALERT: Watch the entire movie at https://archive.org/details/vanishingpointh.264aac before listening to the podcast.

Enjoy!

Here's another cool read that Road & Track just published.  https://www.roadandtrack.com/car-culture/a37319023/vanishing-point-is-50-years-old-and-disappearing-from-our-car-culture/  Amazon has the dvd but not the blu-ray.
