My second favorite part of this was the Grandville knocking the 67' Plymouth police car with its annoying siren into the path of a Chevelle. There were plenty of other Pontiacs in this movie as well. A couple of new Catalinas, a few new Safari wagons, and even a 73 Lemans (during the chase) that they passed a couple of times.
Bill Hickman reminds me of the actor that played Dennis the Menace's dad on the TV show.....

anyone else???

I don't think he spoke a word in Bullit, if he had yelled "Dennis" one time in Bullit, we'd have known it was him...........LOL

About Us

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world.

Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
