    BONUS FEATURE Trans Am Countdown this film has not been seen since 1970 a promo film made for the AMC javelin team focusing on a young Mark Donohue and Rodger Penske lots of unseen track footage! on track you will see an unusual combination of cars running together in practice like marks javelin being passed by a porsche 917 and the javelin passing some really exotic cars like ferrari's Trans Am Countdown was tranferd directly from the 16mm original negative. it looks like it was shot yesterday (look at the frames i pulled off the film) all my films are high quality digital! (not pulled from a VHS copy)

    Thats not all folks!



    The Trans Am series of 1971

    Mark Donohugh and Rodger Penski battle for the championship. This film, 15min., shows the season of racing in 1971, Javalins against the Boss Mustangs excellent quality. You are there as history is being made

    Parnelli Jones

    This very informal evening with Parnelli was shot at a car club meeting in SO. CAL.

    This very rare film documents a very relaxed Parnelli sharing his life with a room full of car guys, many intimate details of the Trans Am days.

    Texas Takeover


    This color film, documenting the record-breaking performance of Craig Breedlove and the American Motors AMX, has been completely restored from the original neg. (This is it folks! It doesn't get any better than this.) We spent hours at one of the top post houses in Hollywood restoring this historic film. If you are an AMC fan, this collector-quality dvd is a must. Craig’s co-driver on this run was his wife, Lee Breedlove. On February 4, 1968, Breedlove set a new 24-hour world record stock car endurance run of 3378 miles, averaging over 140 MPH, running day and night--a fine testament to the engineering and durability of the new AMX!



    Javelin Breed



    The story of the 1968 Trans-Am Racing Series season, with the AMC drivers George Follmer and Peter Revson and crew chief Ronnie Kaplan. This was AMC's first try into the racing field and they were very impressive, finishing every race. Over 20 minutes of color footage showing the AMC vs. Mustang duels. Lots of race coverage and shots of many other cars of the era.

    Trans Am 196725min



    1967 the mystery year of trans am racing

    there is not much film documentation of the year 1967 for trans am as the sieries is still new

    this is the year that made the cougars famus! with drivers like cale yarbougho and dan gurny the racing is amazing

    the couygars are running steel wheels this year



    Trans Am 1969 20min



    1968 was largely dominated by Mark Donohue, driving for Roger Penske. Penske campaigned Camaros through 1969, when he signed with American Motors to race the Javelin in 1970 and 1971. Donohue would chalk up 20 race victories between 1967 and 1970 and three unofficial drivers's championships, the third achieved in 1971. The 1970 Trans Am series is regarded by most racing historians as the high water mark of American road racing. Every "pony car" manufacturer was represented with a factory team and top driving talent: Chevrolet had the Chaparral Chevy Camaro Z28 team with Jim Hall, Ed Leslie, and Vic Elford. Ford's Bud Moore Boss 302 Mustangs were driven by Parnelli Jones and George Follmer. For Plymouth, the All American Racing Cudas were handled by Dan Gurney and Swede Savage. Sam Posey, and occasionally Tony Adamowicz, drove Ray Caldwell's Autodynamics Challenger TA, Jerry Titus had the Pontiac TransAm, and Roger Penske's Sunoco AMC Javelin team starred Mark Donohue and Peter Revson. The Mercury Cougars were driven by Charlie Rainville, Bruce Jennings, and three other drivers in two races of the 1968 season.
