cobraman Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 Cheesy movie ( watched it 3 or 4 times ) but i really like the vehicle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaronw Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 Thanks for finding that. The Landmaster is an iconic sci-fi vehicle, neat to hear how it came about. Terrible movie, the truck is the only positive thing related to it. I'm a fan of the genre but the movie is the typical big budget Hollywood blockbuster with bad writing and worse special effects. The book was great, but the only thing it shares with the movie is the title and a super truck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 If you haven't gotten the Dean Jeffries book, get it. It's split into different areas: pinstriping and painting (Jeffries was the "hot" paint/lettering guy at Indy for much of the Sixties), his cars, and his movie work including performing stunts as well as building vehicles. Each part could be a book all by itself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lunajammer Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 Neat featurette. Kind of ignored the elephant in the room, which was "how does it work?" I'm no mechanic, but I'd still like to have seen a couple shots of what makes it tick to support his raves about how special it was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
