YouTube- Ein Colt für alle Fälle, Fall Guy - GMC...

Scootin 81 C20 · 12-21-2009, 04:43 PM

My buddy used to have a truck that with some paint, a roll bar, and brush guard, would've been the Fall Guy truck.

78-5.3 · 12-21-2009, 04:51 PM

not all 73-80' pickup i see!!

Hoods69BadBowTie · 12-21-2009, 05:50 PM

Wow damn poor GMC Pickup!!

Pyrotechnic · 12-21-2009, 07:43 PM

I thought The Dukes of Hazzard was hard on those Chargers...till I saw this for the first time.

nutsforchevys · 12-21-2009, 08:18 PM

I remember when I was kid watching he jumped off of a cliff and you could see TONKA on his tailgate.LOL!

Restrorob · 12-21-2009, 09:26 PM

Ya gotta wonder how many trucks they actually tore up during that program run ???

Lonnies Performance · 12-21-2009, 09:35 PM

I used to watch it all the time......

Unfortunately their attention to detail was lacking. During stunts the truck would miraculously change from a late style to anything in between 73 to mid 80's. I even saw 1/2 tons & a few 2wheel drives in the stunts.

JohnC · 12-22-2009, 10:59 AM

Yeah but when your young you didn't notice those things. You were just

longbedrick · 12-21-2009, 09:30 PM

Must have invisible ramps for at least half those jumps. Goes from flat ground to airborne in the blink of an eye. Hollywood magic, baby!

77shortstep · 12-22-2009, 11:58 AM

wow lost a lot of good trucks in that 5 min but it was fun to watch i wonder what all they did to those before they jumped them.

Lonnies Performance · 12-22-2009, 10:02 PM

The girls in the bikini's on the show were always a distraction from the trucks.

destroy it by jumping it over everything you can find?

joe231 · 12-22-2009, 10:16 PM

man I loved that show...but this video makes me super

**78 Big10 454** · 12-23-2009, 02:35 AM

Now, there's a truck that needs a serious front-end alignment!

well it will be jumped, but the way i figure its cheaper than buying a 69 dodge charger to go jumpin. but naw i just kinda wanna build the truck like that make a clone or somthing(heck i already got the same paint scheme). but thats a bad truck right there. also shows how good these old trucks are even with abuse!

pig rig · 12-23-2009, 03:58 PM

I had a fall guy lunch pal

asphaltburner · 12-23-2009, 04:20 PM

Yo! Yeah, frontend align to say the least!! GEEZE!
I can catch a glimpse of ladderbar-like chassis and differential guards in a couple scenes. Too bad about all those trucks. I recall the destruction of many an ol' musclecar when I was young, and they were a dime a dozen! In highschool, we ALL owned second hand muscle cars and cool trucks 'cause they were cheap then,...sure wish I had some of those vehicles now!

And before Dog.

Have any of you guys seen Fall Guy trucks on the road since the show? I've heard that after the show, any of the trucks that were left were sold.

joe231 · 12-23-2009, 10:46 PM
