Corvette vs Mustang

Love the car chase in the seven ups. Just watched the clip, lovely to see all the US iron parked up on the NYC city streets. If you see it now, nearly everything is foreign, and what US iron is parked up, its a SUV. How times have changed stateside. I think myself very fortunate to have seen the US full of American cars back in the day.

I have friends who live in Queens, they are into old cars and drive American, but all the neighbors drive foreign.

I think the Bullitt chase soundtrack was also used on/in the seven ups, the old Ventura had a six speed transmission. Bill Hickman looked a lot fatter in the face than he did in bullitt, of course their was a five year difference between films. He looked very 1960’s in bullitt, but soo early 70’s in the seven ups with his long hair. A great driver.

Re bullitt, I remember Jackie bissitts little Porsche. Again, worth nothing stateside in 1968, a bloody fortune now.

Re Miss Bissitt, like her more much more in the Deep.

Who wouldn't want to get in deep with Miss Bissett?

Anybody remember John Wolfe racing at staples corner, loved it in there.

Yes me to, used to have a drive down from Harrow on a Saturday morning just to stick my nose up against the window to see if they had anything new in.

The Mustang does have the advantage of having 4/5 seats, allowing for a group of friends to travel with you. This has always been the downfall of the 2 seater “sports car”...

Easy solution to that, dont have friends.. problem solved!
