In 1991 I worked for a security company that had a fleet of ex-police Dodge Diplomats as patrol cars. They were as tough as anvils. None of them worked right but they never stopped running.

When I started my 30 year career as a cop, our fleet has Dodge Aspens as patrol cars. They were horrible. They were very fast if you drove straight. But hard braking and turning right or left, the engines would die. Cops knew to put it in neutral and restart the engine. Nice and roomy. Phased those out fir the early 80’s Chevy Malibu, a great car, but came with different engines, a 305 and 350. The 350’s screamed.
@oldguysrock21703 жыл бұрын
Side story to the Aspen! There was a cop, who was very strong. The Aspen died on him while driving in a high speed situation. The power steering shuts off and he had to muscle through the turn. He bent the steering wheel. Typical, the city mechanics tried to straighten out the steering wheel so for the duration that cruiser was in service, the steering wheel was more oval than round.

@krondarr88653 жыл бұрын
I remember this movie. It was hilarious. The cop thought he was dying of a terminal disease that was not covered by insurance but if he was killed in the line of duty his family would get a huge settlement. So he was taking a lot of dangerous chances. He had been an extremely cautious cop until then. The actor was not really known for comedy roles but he did a good job in this one.

What puts the original Gone In Sixty Seconds into a league by themselves is Toby who was everything. Writer, Producer, Director, Actor, Stuntman, High-Speed Stunt Driver, you name it. They couldn't get permission for the high-speed chases but they did them anyway. They paid many thousands of dollars not only in fines, but they also paid for all the damage they did to the infrastructures (light poles, etc) of the several cities they flew thru. Best of all, the reason they were able to crash 100 cars is that he owned a massive wrecking yard. Sell 'em for scrap, write 'em off the books, add the money to the filming budget. The guy was one smart cookie!

Funny I recognize the final scene, under the parkade. It's in New Westminster British Columbia, Canada. As a little kid I used to go shopping with my parents at the department store that was there Army and Navy. Between Amazon and the pandemic it put the final nail in the coffin for them. The family that started it the children decided it was time to wrap it up and cash out. As a young man my girlfriend used to work in a bar on that street so I'd always be there late at night. Now as a truck driver I drive down that street on a weekly basis it's changed a lot. Last year there was this huge fire that destroyed a pier here on the river beside a nice park. They are now building two of the tallest waterfront towers in Metro Vancouver there it's along the Fraser River. When they go up for sale I think I'll inquire about a unit. It's beside the New West Quay some cool shops and pubs and restaurants down there.

I still have the engine. I was keeping up with an Integra Type R on the straights and an MR2 kept up with me in the turns. The 360 fitted to an American land yacht would not be able to keep up with my shitbox on track, period. It MIGHT breach the 14s with some mods. Also, 4G33s are in fact used as forklift engines in Asian countries and are extremely durable. So are GA16DEs - both are better than what Hyster put into their forklifts and require very little servicing and don't piss out oil like the Iron Duke.

I still want a DVD for this. The movie is 'Short Time' from 1990. Long story short, a medical mix up makes Dabney Coleman think he's only got a short while to live, but his insurance only pays out if he dies on the job, so to provide for his wife and son after he's gone, he becomes supercop.

I always get sad when I watch old movies and they total something like an old Crown Vic, Dodge Diplomat, Grand Prix, etc. But the thing is, those cars were new then. It's the same principle as taking a 2021 car (any model), and revving it until the engine explodes. Or taking it off-roading and purposely putting it through abuse. We don't see them as valuable now, but they could be in 50 years, the same way classic cars now were normal then, so they didn't think anything of it. That's what I always think of.

The car chase in "Ronin" has always been a fave, also obviously Smokey and the Bandit, and the Blues Brothers too, for the choreography, sheer hilarity and utter destruction of many, many cars. John Candy's quip in the Blues Brothers- "We're in a truck!" Classic.
