a '72 F100 in a movie

Post by flyboy2610 »

In the movie "Ernest Saves Christmas" he drives a tan '72 F100.
They removed hood letters, but I knew what it was!

We just watched 'Smokey and the Bandit', and I noticed quite a few of our trucks in the background all thru the movie.

almost made a drinking game of it!

This thread is kinda ironic, since I've been working on putting together a page showing appearance of '67-'72 trucks on TV. The trucks I have listed on the page right now are ones borrowed from the Internet Movie Car Database. However, I've got a TV tuner video card which allows me to watch and record TV right on my computer, but I'm having some problems with it at the moment. Once I get it working right I'm going to start renting some DVDs specifically to get screen-captures of our trucks to include in this database.

Here's the page so far:
