Am i the only one?
 
I noticed a FB in "the Cable GUY" did anyone else see it?

Here's the scene- mathew b is walking out into the parking garage when he gets fired...the car alarms go off. There plain as day is a 81-85 front bumper light and headlight going up and down, on and off....anyone else see it?

ToyotaryatGR 01-28-04 11:21 AM

I don't think so

jorx81@aol.com 01-28-04 01:08 PM

see them all the time in 80's movies, I've seen lots in others too.

I watched "Myth busters" last night. The episode where they try to find a fuse holder in the junk yard. Anyway, I coulda swore I saw the back end of an FB.

I am pretty sure there is an FB in the itallian job (its turning right at a stoplight, overhead view. its white or silver, i dont remember) and in the matrix: reloaded (im not as sure on this one, you only see it for a split second on the freeway chase scene)

Edit: I might just be crazy though, all my friends think i am :D

Hmmmm. I thought that all the cars in Reloaded were GM? lol.

frstgen12a 01-28-04 03:38 PM

There is a 79 i believe in "the neverending story" at the very end they chase those bullies into the ally its red and parked right on the corner. That movie is an acid trip - just having a first gen makes it even better

I don't see the technical relevance of this thread, so why don't we move it to the lounge.

Rx7carl 01-28-04 08:16 PM

Cause its 1st gen only relevance can keep it here. :)

Concerning "The Italian Job" at least - No, you're not. And if you watch the "behind the scenes" extras, there's a GSL-SE passing (left to right) by the armored car just as they set off the pyrotechnics!

I had to look at that three times to make sure...

Oh yea. I saw an episode of "Highways patrols most dangerous chases" or whatever they call it, where they were chasing a 1st gen. they couldnt keep up for a long time. they were saying "the patrolman could hardly keep up with this 200+ hp sportscar"(which I know was complete bs because it was obviously stock). It dogged them until the driver spun it out(driver error). It was awesome, i was proud.

DeRFmAn 01-29-04 01:26 AM

thats fuckin awesome i need to find that on the net somewhere
