Cool Do Burt proud show your Bandits

How many Bandits can we show in tribute to the real Bandit Mr. Burt Reynolds? Let’s give him the perfect send off to Bandit Heaven.


Here’s my boy BURT.

Just curious, do you think the movie would have been as popular, and that you would have liked it, had they used a Camaro, or Corvette, or similar?

I wonder if Trans Ams are going to see a spike in value now.

How about an 81 (actually a clone-so not perfect, but close) for the Bandit 2. Been a while since I logged on to PY, had to get on after hearing about the loss of the true Bandit.
Actually do not have it anymore, sold it to a PY member and never knew what happened to it.

The Jim-Wangers-built Bandit can haul a sh_tload of Coors! But I was truckin' empty on the 2014 Bandit Run...

So it wasn't Burt's acting, or Jerry Reed, Sally Field, or the Great One, that made it?
Interesting.....

I was a Chevy guy then. Yes for me.

Sally Field was a plus, imo.

Here is a 77 black Z28 to be fair. It has big bumpers, to be fair. We will never know. But I have a doubt on the Z choice.
