    High school in the first half of the 70's must have been decades ago, cuz every car I owned had a brake light switch rigged up. lol
    My 69 goat didn't need it though, give me 5 miles with that car and they were out of sight anyway. lol

    Hill was not too steep, was able to drop it in neutral and slowly roll back and gain some speed but still safely stop. Looked great on film.

    Thanks all for the input and suggestions.

    i would be surprised that the "second unit" director or technical adviser, didn't know this...

    best put out a call to Buddy Joe Hooker, (who is now a stunt coordinator) for information , or Hal Needham....(well maybe not Hal, i just looked him up,m he's dead now)

    Buddy Joe Hooker, (before he became a stuntman) was "Buddy Hart" as a child actor, and played Wally Cleaver's best friend...Chester....look him up.....

    This was the main unit. And tail lights were not an issue. I know of Buddy but never met him. I'm based in NY.

    oh..he's been around for a LOOONG time.....he also did "bit parts" in a few tv shows, i guess back ground character would be what they are called.>??

    but still, your second unit director or stunt coordinator should have known this.....unless everyone is new?

    but anyways, let us know (if you can) when this will be coming!

    and future good luck AND SAFE stunts, in your future!!
