Sad day indeed.

I'd go out and do some donuts if the car wasn't on cribbing.

Stinks. Burt looked terrible last few years. I watch SATB every time it comes on, when I have time. It just never gets old. Jerry Reed and Burt were great together. He was truly a car guy. Gonna be missed.

They've been running the "Eastbound and Down" special on CMT, gives some interesting background on the movie and all involved....

He sure inspired a lot of late 2nd gen T/A owners to build a Bandit, huh Trey?

Same here Scott about watching SATB. Sure will be a different feel now though of course.

Jackie Gleason’s Buford T. Justice was my favorite part of that movie.
