Don't put this on in your car if you don't want to go fast.

The 'frame' is from that wonderful film American Grafitti'
Full of glorious 'sideways' Escorts!

Still one of the prettiest, if potentially lethal, cars

Good ol boy, Steve again
It's from the LP shown 'Exit 0' (zero, as the Yanks say)
Quite a few years ago, I saw him at Leeds Irish Centre, he started off with (Springsteens) Racing In The Streets, sequaying into this

As patriotic as Springsteen!
Now she ain't too good on gasoline, she burns a little oil
But she was built by union labor on American soil
Sweet little '66
Oh, when your Subaru is over and your Honda's history
I'll be blastin' down on back road with my baby next to me
In my sweet little '66
One of a very few images I took that night (took a 35mm compact camera in)

I still remember it was autumn and the moon was shinin'
Our 60 Cadillac was roarin' through Nebraska whinin'
Doin' 120 man the fields was bendin' over
Headin' out for the mountains knowin' we was traveling further

Not quite as fast, as the 'Speed Of Sound' is exaggeration 
But it's a good story & some nice footage of that Kenworth W900
And, sung by one of the stars of the film
Still one of my favourite films, after more than 40 years
(2nd was okay, 3rd was..... appalling...)

You heard about the legend of Jesse James
John Henry just to mention some names
But there's a truck driving legend in the south today
A man called Bandit from Atlanta GA
Every gear jammer knows his name
They swear he got icewater runnin in his veins
A foot like lead and nerves like steel
He's gonna go to glory ridin 18 wheels
He left Atlanta back in '63
Haulin him a load up to Tennessee
He hit Monteagle in a driving rain
So hard he couldn't even see the passing lane
Well he started down the grade when he lost the gear
He hit them brakes found he had no air
The Monteagle grade is steep and long
And everbody that seen it thought the Bandit was gone
Well his truck jack-knifed turned completely 'round
He was coming down backwards 'bout the speed of sound
Alot of folks seen him and they all say
He had his head out the window yelling clear the way
Well he got to the bottom safe and sound
Everybody asked Bandit how he made it down
He said folks when the truck picked up too much speed
I just run along beside it and drug my feet
You heard about the legend of Jesse James
