Back when men raced in Keds loafer sneakers! I'm going to watch that again! Dick Landy rowing that 4-speed ought to bring a tear to your eye.

Watched it again. Now I want a Maverick with a twin-Dominator/tunnel-ram 429 shotgun, 4-speed, Cragars, and Drag 500s. Yep, drive it on the street. That video is mystical.

I probably watched it 20 times, I keep picking up new things everytime I see it. The music is perfect for the scene.

Is Dick Landy the man or what? Look how relaxed he looks before he goes to work in his office. The man was truly a living legend.

He passed away this last Jan. Thats why the video was made.

What is the artist name and track title from the first song played... seen the footage a few times now and every time I ask the same old question... in one ear, out the other...

Thanks for sharing again!

Awesome video! The music choice was great! Sure brought a smile to my face. Also makes me wish it was 1971 again. Progress my ass! Take me back to the 70's!!!!!! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif

It would be cool if Allen Johnson piloted a new Challenger in 09!!!!

well it looks like I was in the wrong thread. On this thread there is a lot of views. So we should keep it here.

Thanks brgrman.

Great video and great song. That track sounded different than the one I have on LP. Stronger guitar. I wonder if it was live? https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/hmmm.gif
