    Boy, I'm glad the '70s are over.

    Great cars.
    Great road.
    Great driving.

    But between the music, camera effects, and a creepy looking Tony Curtis... yikes.

    Ahem......

    I might have the set sitting at home....

    It may have been a VERY THOUGHTFUL gift from my family.

    IT's campy, but fun to watch them, even though Tony Curtis is a little creepy.

    So in addition to The Persuaders, I know that a metallic purple Dino GTS is featured in an early 70s blaxploitation film that I believe starred Jim Kelley. Any other movies or series out there?

    www.imcdb.org is usually a pretty good reference for when cars have been used in movies, though I can't find any entries for Dino road cars... anyone else able to figure it out?

    Was that the scene where they were standing in front of a club, and a driver tossed them keys, thinking they were valets?

    "Take my car"

    "Hey, man, this guy just gave us his car!"

    Next scene - Italian exotic revved to 7000 rpms:

    "Hey, man, how do you get this thing out of first?"
