That Ford must have rim blow wheel lol. I hear a little beep when you go for the 180. My 73 New Yorker does the same thing if you saw on the wheel hard.
Good job, man! I'm impressed! You have perfect technique. I remember fighting the bad steering box and wretched suspension on the old Satellite Sebring doing reverse 180s back in the '80s. It looks like you were having the exact same problem with the Dodge.
I can't remember if it was a Chevette or the Pontiac equivalent, the Acadian.
The blue car is actually a 1975 Charger. Most people think it's a Cordoba. I remember when I first saw it thinking, "That's not a Charger." Haha, it was though.
From reverse to drive? I would slip it into neutral while still rolling backwards, as soon as the front starts to spin around, click it into drive then get on the gas.
Remember that doctor that stuck a needle in your ear when you were a kid? Find out where he lives and do two practice attempts on his lawn at 3:00 AM. Haha just kidding.
Practice on a wet street, it can be done at low speeds.
That is not a cordova. look at the back it is different.

So when you do the 180, at which point do you switch from Drive to Reverse? Is it mid spin?

cordobas are sweet if theyre fixed up nicely. i have a grand prix that looks alot like that.

The Cordoba sounds like the timing is too far advanced and in need of a tune up. Otherwise very cool video.
