One of my favorite movies of all time is now on youtube in it's entirety!

Two lane blacktop is about car guys back in the 60's - drifters traveling the country looking for a race. Back in a time when the US was really free and wide open. If you're a car guy you'll probably get this. If not you will hate it. This isn't an action movie or some fictitious plot hollywood movie. This is supposed to tell the tale of how it really was. I'm not that old, but it even brings back some good memories for me.

I watched this for the 1st time about 15 years ago. A good friend of the family put me on to it. To give you an idea, he still has his first car, a 55 ford. He's in his 60's now. It's setup just like the 55 Chevy in the film. He's also a drag racer with a tube chassis 7 second EXP. Anyhow, hadn't seen this forever and couldn't believe searching on youtube that I found someone had uploaded the whole video. Pretty cool.

Thanks for the heads up, downloading in 720p right now. :)

Also stumbled upon a book called "On The Road" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/On_the_Road) due to this and added it to my list of wanted books.
Seems it was turned into a movie aswell, though I fear it'll be a hollywood remake for 16year olds. ;(
