1977 was the year the Y-82 landed a spot in the movies and became a screen legend beside Burt Reynolds, ally Fields and Jackie Gleason. Titled Smokey and the Bandit, he movie was a big cops-and-robbers chase spectacular with Burt helping a trucker deliver some suds by acting as heat magnet for Sheriff Buford T Justice, layed by Gleason. The film was made in 1976 using several Trans Am equipped with what would be the SE package. With lots of comedy and action, he movie was a box office hit. This kind of product placement advertising was invaluable. Pontiac was instantly rewarded with high showroom traffic and virtually every "Bandit" T/A selling for sticker price.
