Mr. Majestyk has got to be one of the best Ford pickup chase scenes ever! I think ole' yeller was a '68. Movie trivia, the pickup was not modified to do stunts. That was pure "Ford tough" hopping boulders and jumping ravines, all the more impressive! Clips from the movie were used by Ford for TV commercials to show just how tough it was.

Hmmm Mad max and road warior if i remember correctley one of the 67-72 F series truck had a boats front window that was the the windows for front and doors and no roof(how could they do that It was wrong)?


I wonder if like the WWII Willy CJ2-2As and so used by the friendly(U.S. and European Allies)Armys left in Africa and australia. Did we leave any 67-72 F-Series Trucks in either place.

speaking of chases, I had a wierd Dream last night, I had put that 3.25:1
rearend under my 72 and was being chased by some wierd guy wanting to kill me and when i gunned it some little old lady came out of no where and i slammed them brakes well still getting sideways(from lighting up the limited slip) and near flipped it. in the end i was stuck in some big old mudd whole. And the guy had cuaght up to me I begged for my life and instead of killer me. He took out a bigg silver needle and poked it in my now ballon looking 72 f100 and it popped leaving me deaf. :lol: No more fried chicken before bed. :lol: :lol: :lol:

That was a great movie. My dad and I used to watch it whenever we could catch it on cable, just for that awesome chase scene.

This is about my cousin in his '02 f250. the truck has 15,000 miles on it and he feels the need to take it to jim creek to rally it. he brings a whole new meaning to built for tough. It has been through many sand dune climbes, hood deep creek crossings, and seen more air time than a skate board at the Xgames. It almost hurts me to see a new ford treated this way but i know its tough and i dont have to pay for it when he screws it up. so i hold on for a rough ride :evil:

I have wanted to see Mr. Majestyk, but I am not sure if any movie store carries it. Guess I will have to look on the net.

talkin about 67-72 trucks in the movies I saw one of our trucks in that new movie that came out a few months ago.

The name of the movie is called- Hostage- and has Bruce Willis in it. In the movie a couple of redneck boys drive it and chase a rich girl diving a Escalade to her house and end up breaking into her house. Pretty good action movie, check it out.
