Kill Bill 2
Rockford Files
Night rider and Cannonball Run

its amazing - who researched all these?
like the 79 in Star Trek, voyage home, it was a only a background for a few seconds

regardless, everyone of these movies/tv shows have now become an instant classic

[LOMILETA]

The 79 in the star trek, sure looks like an 80 Pace car. pull up the pic, its got a half black roof and rear bumper. Also the car in Chips and Corvette summer is the same one, but painted differently.

Wow I did not realize how many trans am were used in T.V. and the movies.

[dblhh]

I don't know how accurate the year models are, since the one listed as a '77 in Sleepwalkers looks to be Martinique blue (a one-year only color in 1978) and has Fisher t-tops (not available until 1978).

I love that website, it's crazy how many T/A's made it to the big screen

[coreyvett]

My favorite one other than smokey and the bandit I. Has allways been the black bird on corvette summer

Wow I'm very glad they actually caught the one in Casino, good eye, I thought I was gonna have to add that to the list on here.

I think they forgot the White 78 trans am in the music video Park Life

2 minute 50 sec in.     http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YSuHrTfcikU

See that gold mark 1 ford granada.  That is the best the british car makers could do in the 70s.

The rubbish cars we had to put up with in the UK !   .  Thats why i now only drive an american classic.
