ww12345, that's awesome you own a scope print and that Puggo are willing to make a transfer! A 2k or 4k scan would be fantastic, hope you are able to fulfill those plans. You should perhaps start a thread for this, there are maybe people around here that is able to help you out with this. Guess it could be the original theatrical cut if it was struck in '76, the re-release version came out in '78, exciting!
Found this clip of the opening titles in the '83 home video release: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oYVe6Jzr0VA
I think it's interesting that they actually bothered to create new titles for the pan & scan format instead of letterbox or squeeze it...
Theatrical vs home video titles:
See how red faded and drab the LD-transfer is, but what happened to the Mels drive-in neon sign. Could perhaps be the result of the red fading.
