At last, the best top movie car list ever
http://oldschool.tblog.com/post/1970160729
For those of us who watched TV/movies in the 80's.
(The camaro Ole'John Boy drives in 'Better off Dead') is INCREDIBLE)
How many of these did you see back in the day?
Myself, EVERY single one, 100%
Enjoy.

Pretty good list, even if the order can be questioned.
I guess when people say "Hollywood cars" here are the ones that enter my head (80s or otherwise)...
- A-Team van
- BTF DeLoreon
- General Lee
- Mad Max black on black
- Bluesmobile
- Ghostbusters ECTO-1
- Knight Rider
- '89 Batmobile
- Vacation Family Truckster
Bonus to that list for Spaceballs Winnebago...just watched that the other night.
Well, those are all from the 80's...but probably the same ones that would come to mind for me as well, I guess we're about the same age.
Three other cars, not 80s, come to mind for me.
The Charger and Mustang from Bullit. Duh.
And, there's this movie that was run on TV once when I was a kid. A Horror movie I shouldn't have been watching at like 5 years old. About this black car that for no reason wanted to kill people. For years and years I puzzled and searched for this movie (before the Internet made all human knowledge....well of pop culture at least...available instantly) until I finally found it in video store in the late 90's. Movie was called, simply, The Car. Car was a modified 1971 Lincoln Continental Mark III.
If anyone knows of die cast version of that Lincoln, I'd be interested. There are 1/18 scale versions branded for the movie on e-bay, way out of my price range. Would instead want 1/64 of the Lincoln regardless of any movie branding.
- Bullit is a perfect one, my wife called that one out, but not in my "go to" list — redlinederby
- Wife also had the Torino from Starsky & Hutch in her list — redlinederby
hmmmm... how about [NCIS's] Abby Shouto's chopped, red, full fendered, '31 model A coupe ?
How on earth does that blah Miami Vice Ferrari Daytona tie the Magnum PI 308 GTS?
