Not to tout my own horn, but my own Rockford Keep on Rolling (2003)
features a 16 minute build-up on three screens from lento car cruises
accelerating to fiery crashes at the 16-minute mark, featuring most
prominently Jim Rockford's Firebird...all footage taken from 100+
episodes of the Rockford Files...

not online, but a copy can be mailed to anyone who desires....
cheers
