I'm mostly a 'redneck bubba' kinda guy in a lot of ways, but who's favorite music artist since the 1980s has been "Lesley Gore" LOL. ---Most of her stuff is girly/feminine/etc and you'd NEVER pick ME to listen to it based on my personality/character/etc. I listen to MANY types of music from total Country (like Charley Pride) to total Hard Rock (like Led Zeppelin) but LG is BY FAR my favorite. And 99% of my music is from the 1950s-80s. Today's music generally makes you feel hostile and uptight (often by design). With what's going on with people today, I don't need any help feeling hostile, so the opposite feeling (Lesley Gore) is good medicine for me. Also, in the 80s in high school I had a HUGE CHIP on my shoulder, so it was good medicine for me then too. Some who knew me back then might say I couldn't have been any worse, but TRUST ME I WOULDA BEEN A LOT WORSE WITHOUT THE SOOTHING MUSIC LOL!! And forget ''Lady Bla Bla'' and 'new crap' when there's Lesley Gore ha ha.
Charles Napier doesnt like small foreign cars LOL
In this Nov 21, 1982 episode of CHIPS, Charles Napier (1936-2011) knocks small foreign cars off the road, calls them "econo boxes with V-nothin engines"---(LOL), beats on them with a sledge hammer, and almost blows up an auto parts warehouse for compact cars. I always liked this actor cos he always played good ole boy redneck types, always hilarious.

The J in SJ doesn't stand for John! DeLorean took the J and SJ designations from the Duesenberg. I know a little about the cars I have a '69 J model.
Sound spotty!
The gnx probably one of the greatest American muscle car hands down. Smoking 6 figure exotics. That's all I got to say lol.

I know the uploader probably won't see this, but if anyone else is watching this part and going "hey is the audio out of sync?" Yes it is
Ya I know how irritating that is. Especially when I uploaded this 14yrs ago the words were in sync, but ytube changes things on the site as technology changes/improves etc, they didn't used to have ads is just one of dozens of things and that can cause video play problems. There's been so many changes that at one time I think the words got in sync again on vids like this, only to be thrown outta sync again later.
Saw it at7 .it took me sixty years to get a shoebox ford.with a 289 and four speed.all mustang .one in movie looks to be 292. Ford. Close enough.
I read somewhere it was a 312 . . . all the cars used were actual moon cars . . .... .. . bought from the shiners ...
I am placing an order for 2025 Oldsmobile next week.🥰
The guy from the used car lot was the best
With the demise of Oldsmobile we lost a great deal of our American heritage!
My first car was the 69 GP. Bought it in 78. I still have it. I need a few more parts and I'll redo her.
Where can I find the full show? If I'm not mistaken, the 426 HEMI made over 800 hp
Do not remember the GTO coming with high rise Edelbrock and Holley carbs.
Giving me some ideas for a '69 Cadillac.....
Sadly, the "neighborhood block"- and all of the "Columbia Ranch" (later "Warner Ranch") backlot- was torn down in November 2023 to make way for new buildings.
THE FIRST OLDS V8 WAS JUNK..ASK ANY OLD MECHANIC..
The 80's main 'heavy' alongside Brian Dennehy.
Ive seen many gto's with blown motors get them replaced by a 400 or 455 out of a grand prix! This was back in the day when they were plentiful! The grand prix engines were just as mean as what came out of a GTO!
The late Charles Napier was a great character actor who played in a lot of films and tv shows. He played the judge presiding over Tom Hanks' Andrew Beckett's lawsuit against his former employer in 1993's Philadelphia.
He would nave been just fine if the revenue agents didn’t kill him
I had a 63 impalaSS in 10 th grade at 16 . It was great didnt look like much .But it did stomp the smartass with the bonneville convertible with the 3-2 setup.Right in front of all the super cools in front of school They all said and put up money to see that piece of junk 2x4 409 Beat daddys car.I had the formula 409 Z11.And yes it was a Z llwish i still had it.
Loved those early ‘50 fords…still see a few of them in Minnesota especially at local car shows…
Love the hood on the 71 GTO's look good and aggressive.
Traffic light viewers? Was that a device installed on the dash to allow drivers with overhanging roofs to be able to see the traffic light right above them at intersections? I’m surprised a lot of other cars of the ‘50s did not have those, among them, the 1958 Edsel.
I remember the early 60s. In the late 50s and early 60s the MOPAR383s 413s and 426s ruled the street. Not only were the engines powerful in the 60s the MOPARS were smaller and lighter.. They had the best a utomatic in the business and a tough rear end. They generally were quicker on the street than the ⁴09 Chevs or 406 Fords. I personally n e ver saw a 421 Super Duty Catalina or Bonneville on the street rscing scene. In Southern California or south Texas. Probably because they were ungodly ecpensive to build . I did s r e some road tests on a couple and the results of these tests and their performance at the drag strip and in NASCAR made it clear tha t the 421 SD engines were putting out a LOT more than the c laimed 405 hp. Some years later I witnessed dyno testing of a pro built 421 SD Pontiac engine on a n accurate dyno. The engine after all tuning twesks put out 491 hp. Not bad and aboutc20 percent more than the clsimed 405 hp. The engineers in 7 years took the samev287 block from 247 c i and w 80 hp to 421 c.i. and 490 hp. Pontiac shifted from race cars for the street with its SD program to the hot car for the street with its 1964 GTO. Itvwas heavily promoted but not really that fast after the Chevy 396 hit the street in its middized cars and its Camaro. And the long rods made them less than durable over 5500 rpm. Max hp at the timecwas around 360 compared to the 375hp....actually 425hp.... 396 Chevelles. Also the CHEV II SS in 1966 was perfectly capable of blowing the doors off the GtOs. If you had one of these Chevys and put the 365hp solidlifter cam lifters screw in studs and correct valve springs you got a nice solid 365 hp engine in a much lighter car that could happily rev to 6500 rpm and live. GM POLICIES at the corporate level virtually destroyed all GM brands ex ept Chevrolet. Because of badge engineering deliberste cheapening of their cars and failure to rapidly adapt with new engineering and more efficient designs in power trains. And downsizing their cars. The only division that didnt suffer as much was Chevrolet... m because it was the bottom of the product line up in price. . And the platform and engine that the other divisions were rebadging. Example the Cad Cimarron which was basically a Chevy Ii somewhat tarted up. At the end Pontiac and Olds werent building excitment or Rockets. They were building sh.tty lirrle dreadfully slow and ugly cars that were overpriced compared to their Chevy counterparts that they were clone from.
Sweet ride
Perfect pitch & perfect style
These engines actually make around 485 horses. A total beast
Ya if you calculate hp (and there's various formulas) based on qtr time, car weight, gear ratios etc, there's no way these cars could achieve the times they do with the factory wimpy ratings. And the terrible tires back then also hurt them. A new 2023 car of this weight and time would be rated much higher with today's "optimistic" (in my opinion) hp ratings. Peak hp ratings only reflect "peak hp" for a milisecond not "average hp" across the entire power band. These bigger engines really didn't have any "dead spots" compared to say a small engine of today that may not come alive till 7k rpm, by then its too late and you're in this 421s rearview mirror.

2016 to 2018. I worked in Shepardville Kentucky and remember the sherif giving me a hard time. My co workers were buying and using oxytocin and the sheriff and pharmisist were in on it.

SHE'S REAL FINE MY 409, GIDDY GIDDY UP 409
Ive got a 54 coup and a 57 ,,300 in the carport now because of this movie
"She's real swine, my four oh nine..."
My parents had the "Sunshine Lollipops and Rainbows" LP and it must have made thousands of trips on our Zenith Circle of Sound Hi-FI. The real treat was listening to her on headphones, because the songs were so well produced with analog technology. LG didn't have a powerful voice, but she was a fantastic singer,...her styling and breath control were excellent. You can tell she had some good training because she carries every measure through, doesn't cut off until the count of 1 in the next measure,...and she crescendos to the end.
I think you need to make a part 4
Such a lovely and unique voice!
Still listening in 2023 😊
One of the finest ever produced.
The company that made your beloved 409 truck engine went bankrupt and no longer exists.
I. Have a GNX, #069 out of 547 with 1000 miles on her.
And it's General Motors for the win!!!😂
I looked this up after watching an episode of Cheers during season 2 Sam and Coach say they never miss Robert Mitchum movie especially this one!
Is this Pontiac’s version of a 1970 Malibu with a 454?
Well first your full of sh*t ! Ive run all of them ! The best is the 69 -427 tri power ! The 421 was a turd !
RIP Leslie
Don't get me wrong, I love Pontiacs and Butler Motors, but I really do not think they are capable of building an engine in stock configuration.
At 0:43 , it sounds like KITT from Knight Rider .
From the time Pontiac started building V8,s after the 50,s Pontiac,s dominance on the track was becoming a bit expensive between 1962-64 SD engines were quite powerful and couldn't use a automatic transmission, but street and strip performance as good as Chevys 409.
Bullshit video. Nothing but a push for aftermarket parts.
