Tuesday Car Movie: Vanishing Point
Colorado State HP Officer: Nevada, this is Colorado State Highway Patrol. This is about a special query raised by the Utah Highway Patrol. - Affirmative, that's correct, but later they asked that the information be forwarded to you guys, so get ready for some details. Apparantly this speed maniac you've been chasing all over your territory is a former professional road racer named Kowalski, K-O-W-A-L-S-K-I, repeat Kowalski. First name unkown, other particulars also unknown. All we do know is that he's employed as a car delivery driver by an agency in Denver. He's presently driving a Dodge Challenger, Colorado licence plate OA-5599. This is not a stolen car; he's driving it to San Francisco for delivery due Monday.
Nevada State HP Officer: It's only Saturday, what's his hurry?
Colorado State HP Officer: That's what we wanted to know ourselves, so your guess is as good as ours. 10-4.

Growing up in various regional country towns with no TV but ABC meant slim pickings when it came to movies. Fortunately my father invested in a new fangled device called a VCR (but OH NO....Beta)and bought a few from the Magnetic Video Mail order collection(late 70's). This movie, along with Crazy Larry and Dirty Mary, was on constant high rotation for many years.
ReplyDeleteI still long for the sound of a 426 Hemi Challenger with the pistol shift.
I blame this movie entirely for my love of everything fast and shiny.
Kowalski,the the last beautiful free soul on this planet...
We have reason to believe it is Supercharged....
