While not in the credits, the CB radio was the Bandit’s best friend in the hit movie directed by Hal Needham. The Bandit, played by Burt Reynolds, used his CB radio and gleaming black Firebird® to skillfully avoid Smokey, played for laughs by Jackie Gleason, on one long movie chase. One of the highest grossing chase movies of all time, Smokey and the Bandit also brought new life to the Pontiac Firebird. Fans loved seeing the jet black Firebird raced from state to state with the sheriff in hot pursuit. This popularity translated to the showroom.
