Two Lane Blacktop

Starring: James Taylor (the guitarist), Warren Oates.

Typical 60's/70's road movie with two guys in a fast 1955 Chevy gasser driving from place to place street racing. James Taylor is the driver and his younger brother the mechanic. They take on a GTO in a long distance race and pick up hitch hikers along the way. Interesting fact is the '55 Chevy built for the movie was built by a well known race shop who misunderstood the brief and built a full race car when they only needed to build a prop.

Thin slow moving plot but iconically cool car guy acting. Non hotrodders will probably fall asleep during this, for cult classic petrol heads only 7/10
