KingSix Posted December 19, 2010 Posted December 19, 2010 Does anybody have the slightest idea what state the Trans Am pursuit car was from the opening scene of the original Cannonball Run movie was ? It has similar markings to the CHP, but those are black and white, like the Z-28 used later in the movie. The Trans Am was blue and what appears to be gray. Any help would be appreciated ....
Agent G Posted December 19, 2010 Posted December 19, 2010 Blue and silver would be Nevada Highway Patrol. Their markings were nearly identical to California back then. G
Agent G Posted December 19, 2010 Posted December 19, 2010 Ok I googled the movie and viewed the opening. That is definately an attempt to replicate a Nevada Highway Patrol car. Silver roof over dark blue were the colors then. The door had a seven point star with the words "Highway Patrol" curving over the star. Their star is not a legit representation, but then again neither is the car. BTW one scene looks like it was shot on I 95 near the I 93 interchange, not far from my house. G
KingSix Posted December 19, 2010 Author Posted December 19, 2010 AgentG, thanks for the info... I've been trying to build this car for awhile now..
Agent G Posted December 20, 2010 Posted December 20, 2010 Best colors are MM Arctic Blue and German Silver. G
