Vanishing Point Page #2

Synopsis: Kowalski works for a car delivery service. He takes delivery of a 1970 Dodge Challenger to take from Colorado to San Francisco, California. Shortly after pickup, he takes a bet to get the car there in less than 15 hours. After a few run-ins with motorcycle cops and highway patrol they start a chase to bring him into custody. Along the way, Kowalski is guided by Supersoul - a blind DJ with a police radio scanner. Throw in lots of chase scenes, gay hitchhikers, a naked woman riding a motorbike, lots of Mopar and you've got a great cult hit from the early 70's.

Colorado licence OA-5599.

- Ten-four. Was anybody injured?

We're on our way in, but you'd best

Supe. Pick up on this, man.

"Attention all Highway Patrol stations."

"Suspect vehicle,

1970 Dodge Challenger, white in colour."

(# "Freedom of Expression"

by the JB Pickers)

(Truckdriver honks)

Car number 71 just crashed into car 63.

It's a pile-up. Eight cars... nine cars!

Oh, my God, it's number three, Kowalski!

Look at him riding on the roof of the car.

Greetings, sir. Let's race.

You got any balls in that mother?

(Laughs)

You bastard.

(Sirens approaching)

- Car 24 to headquarters.

- Come in, car 24.

Yeah, we lost him at the Nevada border.

Let Nevada handle it. This guy's nuts.

Ten-four.

Will advise Nevada Highway Patrol.

(# "Welcome to Nevada" by Jerry Reed)

Yeah, I got it all right.

Initials OA-5599 Colorado plates.

Now, what's this roadrunner done, fellas?

Hey, Supe. I got them on the air now.

Yeah, quite a mother. But fellas, as you

know, we can't throw anything at him

except dangerous driving and failure to stop -

misdemeanours, both of 'em, over here.

Yeah.

But you told me that once, camarada.

But has this bronco in the Jaguar

filed a formal complaint?

- No, he hasn't.
