Chicago music video featuring a 68 442 Convertible

Can't believe I haven't seen this one before. Hopefully no 442's were harmed during the making of this video.

I loved "Stay the Night" , as much for the chick as for the car (though to paraphrase Austin Powers, in some of the stunt driving shots that's a MAN, baby!)

As I recall, SOMETIMES its a 4 speed...and sometimes it aint! Based on "PRNDSL" on the speedo and the auto brake pedal in a couple shots, I guess they used two cars for the interior shots at least.

At approx 3:19 and 3:24, I think you can make out the auto brake pedal

And at approx 3.22, check out the "PRND2" on the dash under the speedo...in fact, I wonder if that's even a '68 Cutlass dash?!

Finally, I can't find a frame to prove it, but swear that car has Cragars with SS1 center caps.

I like the video and alot of other 80's music also. I grew up then so that is where most of my memories of fun in cars started.

Got this from Songfacts.com.

The woman in the video is award-winning stunt woman Debbie Evans. She is more recently known for doing some of the driving stunts in "The Fast & the Furious" and "Matrix Reloaded"

I ha dlooked into that myself a few months back...while the stunts may have been performed by a woman driver, but I don't think the hottie-actress is the same person.
