Quick question

[Retro Performance]

Does anybody remember a movie in the mid seventies starring Peter Fonda and a GT 150...............I think some kind of chase scene and a big jump?

[76bayflite]

Only thing I can think of is the james bond movie...course I wasnt around in the sevnties.

[Rich_V174SS]

I think this came up once before, the movie might be Outlaw Blues from 1977.

I've done some research and according to most craigslist adds all Glastrons were once featured in a James Bond Movie.


...and they all somehow look like an orange GT

As far as I know, I'm the only one around here that actually owns a real "Movie Boat" You can see it in "A Serious Man"

Sorry ...
I don't remember any thing from the 70's ...
And the 80's are kind of blurry also ...
LOL

Can't remember the movie you're asking about but do remember "Live and Let Die." Have it on DVD as well as Moon Raker. Watch Live and Let Die and see if you can see the mid-river 30+ mph boat changes. Slight flaw in the scenes. In one boat, then another and then back to the other. Oops.

Gator with Burt Reynolds was another great boat movie. That super charger was manual and could be turned off and on. OK

Remember the C-537 in "A View To A Kill"?

[V153]

Glastrons were in "Commando" too.

And the 70's Disney film "Boatniks". (Sorry no pic of the boat.)

[V153]

A Glastron was featured in "Weekend At Bernies" as well.

And in the 1972 movie "Frogs".

Are you kidding!!! My Dad LOVED "Frogs"! It was one of his all time favorite bad movies. I'm sure I musta seen it once or twice but never spotted the Glastron. Which model(s)?

[badgercarlson]

I think it's a CV 19. At the very beginning of the movie, the Glastron swamps a guy in a canoe.  The Glastron driver and his passenger rescue the guy and then take him to shore.  This is all before the frogs start to attack !!!!

Cool! Thanks. Lucky for the canoer them frogs din't get him. Probly did later I'm guessin ...

Tbk I've had several encounters with uppity frogs. Most memorable being the time I opened the door to my outside shower'n a decent (3" dia?) sized frog jumped off'n landed on the side of my face. I screamed like a lil girl ...
