| Meanwhile, the '72 LeBaron makes up ground effortlessly, taking the curves with ease. | |

| The Imperial's 440 4-barrel motor has plenty of punch, even for such a B-I-G car. | |

| These two in the '72 Imperial back off as they approach the fleeing Ford, hoping to remain unnoticed as they tail it. Pretty hard to do in an Imperial, however! (Note rear view mirror is missing for filming.) | |

| Uh oh, "The Thing" with Rosey Grier's and Ray Milland's heads is now aware of the LeBaron that's been tailing them. Rosey flashes a gun and orders the driver to "step on it." | |

| The '72 Plymouth cop car would be large today, but the Imperial dwarfs it in size! | |

| The '72 Imperial's fuselage body looks elegant in its Charcoal Metallic paint. | |

| At this point in the chase, Rosey Grier has commandeered the 1969 Ford. He's not too impressed by its get-up-and go, though, telling the car's owner: "Man, this car's a real dud!" | |

| Later, the '72 Imperial gives us a great view of it's hidden headlights. Now you see 'em.... | |
