1973 Firebird Trans Am Racing Team + Pit Crew film David Hobbs, John Cordts, Jerry Titus, TG Racing

This film appears to have been made as a promotional film for the TG Racing team. Early in the 1970 racing season Jerry Titus died as a result of injuries form a crash in one of the firebirds. After his death the firebirds were repainted blue. This film starts with the rollout of the newly painted race car. Lots of great behind scenes pit crew and racing footage. This film came from my personal collection. This film was not downloaded from any website and is not reused content. This restoration is my work. The restoration process started with cleaning, repairing, and spooling the original 16mm optical sound print. Next the scanning to digital process was performed on the Lasergraphics Scanstation motion picture film scanner in 2k resolution. Then extensive color correction was performed in Davinci Resolve. Finally, the film was converted to Mp4 2k Format for uploading to YouTube.
