A stroked 417-cubic-inch small block Nova got jumped off the line by a turbocharged Eagle Talon and had to pedal the throttle just to save the run — and that’s before a second grudge race between a 2001 Mustang Bullitt and a 1999 Camaro even gets underway. Shot from multiple angles down a quiet stretch of road, this is grudge racing at its most detailed. Watch to see how both races actually finished.
A father and son in Strasbourg spent two years restoring a 1968 Mustang GT Fastback built to the same spec as Bullitt’s most famous chase car. Days after finishing it, the groom drove it to his own wedding. Here’s the story behind the build — and why the ’68 GT Fastback remains one of the rarest, most requested Mustang body styles ever made.
An editor spent hours splicing together the greatest car chases from more than a dozen films, Bullitt, The French Connection, Vanishing Point, Mad Max, and beyond, into one continuous five-minute sequence. The result plays like an entire decade of practical stunt driving compressed into a single unbroken chase. Watch to see how many of these iconic films you can spot.
From Steve McQueen’s Bullitt in 1968 to John Wick in 2014, the Dodge Charger has been Hollywood’s go-to car for spectacular on-screen destruction, and this compilation pulls together seven of its most memorable on-camera deaths. Along the way it traces how practical stunt work evolved from the golden age of Cannonball and Dirty Mary Crazy Larry through Tarantino’s deliberate throwback in Death Proof. Even the comments can’t agree on which Charger send-off hurts the most. Watch to see which seven films made the cut.
A 1968 Ford Mustang GT and a 1968 Dodge Charger R/T tear through the hills of San Francisco in one of the most argued-about car chases ever filmed — and viewers still can’t agree on how many hubcaps the Charger actually lost along the way. No score, no CGI, just two big-block V8s and two drivers who knew exactly how much grip they had left. Watch to see why a scene filmed over fifty years ago still beats the chases Hollywood makes today.
A top-of-the-line 1974 Dodge Charger SE with a 440 under the hood and a set of quarter windows unlike anything else on the lot — Victoria Friday’s ride sits at the crossroads of the Charger’s Bullitt-era fame and Detroit’s mid-1970s retreat from raw horsepower. Read on to see what actually separated the SE from an ordinary Charger, and why the 440 badge still mattered in a year emissions rules were choking performance everywhere else.
Steve McQueen did much of his own driving in the Bullitt chase scene — a 1968 Ford Mustang GT pursuing a Dodge Charger through San Francisco with no CGI and famously little music. Decades later, fans are still finding new details: a recurring green VW Bug, impossible geography between shots, and a scene that Mopar owners and Mustang fans both claim as their own. Watch the chase that’s still the benchmark everyone else gets measured against.
