Bandit T/A. Hands down for me. It could be because I have been watching that movie for about 28 years and have seen it at least 500 times. No exaggeration.

I was going to say the square body that Larry the Cable Guy drives in that Prilosec OTC commercial, but no need, I am building one similar, but better, with my touches.

Also the square body that Allen Jackson drives in his "Summertime Blues" video, but no thanks, see above.

I remember when "Smokey" came out. I seen it at the theater in 1977. The critics poo-pooed it. Lol, guess they were wrong.

Now my kids enjoy it. Just 500 times? I think my kids watched it that many times in one year back in the late 90s. Lol.

True there was a time when I watched that thing 5 times in a weekend as a kid... it's probably closer to a thousand. I still watch it every time it is on cable and I do own the pursuit pack DVD. Heck it might be 1500 if I really thought about it!

Another one I just thought of is the white and grey GMC crew cab dually with the firebird on the hood in "Cannonball Run". Probably one of the reasons I like these trucks. Of course I also have to blame my deep seeded love of anything Lamborghini on that movie as well!
