We know what you’re thinking. The Smokey and the Bandit Trans Am is legendary, but it’s an automatic. At least the interior of the car is shown to have an automatic transmission shifter, but watch closely and listen to the soundtrack more and you’ll find that there must have been at least a few four-speed cars in the fleet of Trans Ams used in filming.

The video below proves it. Listen for clutch dumping, and watch for the one scene where the TA gets second-gear rubber. That’s enough stick-shifting for us, so here’s this week’s Parting Shift.

The video goes downhill when Jerry Reed’s West Bound and Down starts playing (yes, West), but it does have more of the good car footage from the original and classic first S&tB movie.
