I guess I'm not Steve McQueen

[bates]

Thats what mechanic bud says I thought I was.

Some of you may have seen my problems in other threads on here, well I found my problem. Blown piston...not good.

OUCH! No it takes a lot to be Steve McQueen

 

[Crankcase]

Huh, why would you be SM?

 

[Rhett]

Maybe he means that he hot-rodded his truck like Steve McQueen did to that Mustang in the movie "Bullit". Heckuva car chase, if you've never seen that movie. Better than the car chase in "Ronin".

 

[bates]

Excellent chase scene, have it on my comp. Ya he meant driving like SM.

 

[Eneurb]

I still can't figure out how that Charger lost 7 hub-caps in that chase...

You are more like Kowalski! HEHEHE...

 

[bates]

YES! you finally saw that movie eh? It's a much better film all around!

 

[Crankcase]

The end sucks in VP.....LAME

 

[bates]

No way man I love it. Happy ending

 

[Eneurb]

Maybe your happy ending will see a 5.0 in your truck!

You must be young or never watch old movies or both. There are certain old actors who are cool. Steve McQueen was one of them.

 

[LOGJOCKY]

i am 22 and dont ever watch old movies...after reading the writeup on him he died before i was even born.

 

[bates]

I'm 19 and I know Steve McQueen is cool. You really never seen Bullitt? Lemans? The great escape?

 

[LOGJOCKY]

i dont like watching old movies. and for that matter i dont watch alot of new movies either. i didnt say he wasnt cool, hes just before my time. I believe they had the great escape on tbs once or twice, i may have seen some of it

 

[mctoy]

I am not even a movie fan, but The great escape was ...ummm...GREAT! When he jumps the fence on the motorcycle!!! Love that scene. Little things, like how he shakes the bike back and forth to check the gas level....I guess he really did own a BUNCH of bikes.

If you've never seen Bullitt, you need to. That movie has the first true car chase in movie history. Ronin, The Rock, Gone in 60 Seconds, etc. all owe their car chase scenes to Bullitt. Steve McQueen was badass....

 

[LOGJOCKY]

im not too big into car chases anyways, i didnt like gone in 60 seconds and never saw ronin. The Rock is very good though. I am more into comedies and dramas
