Hmm, I realised that I've already blabbered in this thread earlier. But I'll line up some of my favourites anyway.


1958 Plymouth Fury, Christine

(I hate when people see a -57 or -59 Plymouth (and not seldom one of the lower ends 4 door models) and go: OMG, it's a Christine!1! No, it was a -58 Fury and nothing else! They're different, goddammit )

1971 Lincoln Continental Mark III customized by George Barris, The CAR

1963 VW Beetle (Herbie), The Love Bug

1968 Mustang GT Fastback 390, Bullitt

1968 Dodge Charger R/T 440 Magnum, Bullitt

Interceptor, Mad Max: The Road Warrior

Chitty Chitty Car, Chitty Chitty Bang Bang (God, I wanted this bloody flying car so bad when I was a kid lol)

Aston Martin DB5, Goldfinger

Lotus Esprit, The Spy who Loved Me

1961 Ferrari 250 GT, Ferris Bueller’s Day Off

1970 Dodge Challenger R/T 440, Vanishing Point

My favourite Batmobiles:

1955 Lincoln Futura customized by George Barris (who also build the CAR), Batman (1966)

Custom build on modified Chevrolet Caprice and Buick Riviera chassis, Batman (1989)

.. and the list could go on and on..

 

[X-Ray]

Blade's 68 Charger

 

[Breogan]

This Wacky Race isn't over....


1943 Stark prototype hovercar

And out of that same extended universe
LOLA (Levitating Over Land Automobile) - cherry-red. 1962 Chevrolet Corvette

 

[Breogan]

As well as Robbie Reyes' 69 Hell-Charger!

Shame the stars didn't align to make his show happen.

 

[Breogan]

Buckaroo's modified 80s Ford F-350 truck, DC-3 transport plane scoops, World War II German fighter cockpit, 4,000 lbs turbine GE turbo jet engine + nitrous tanks... and the Proto-Flux-Capacitor AKA - the Oscillation-Overthruster armed at 0:55
[video=youtube;8jK3RW6rSCM]

 

[Breogan]

And none of the bucket of bolts listed so far got anything on the cinematic masterpiece that is the hideous 1972 Ford Econoline Ant-Van with faux-wood-pannel finish, elegant rear opera-window, quantum-time-tunnel-generator and Cucaracha Car Horn!

[Breogan]

Hunter S. Thompson & Oscar "Zeta" Acosta Fierro's -Great Red Shark
Aka Duke and Gonzo's 1973 Chevrolet Caprice Convertible

"We were on our way to Las Vegas to find the American Dream, that’s why we rented this car..."
"The trunk of the car looked like a mobile police narcotics lab. We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, and a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, . . . a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of Budweiser, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls."

 

[Breogan]

This Wacky Race isn't over....

Isn't a movie but it should be...
Just ignore the Peugeot and Driver
[video=youtube;Vkp8rM_SkH8]

Also for real? -

 

[Breogan]

Some legit beuties....
TXH 1138 - Lola T70 Mk III

Ford GT40 MkII

Ferrari 330 P3

 

[Hunter Rider]

That Ferrari!

 

[Hunter Rider]

1971 Lincoln Continental Mark III customized by George Barris, The CAR

This is such an underrated horror movie, the creepy concept is well executed.

 

[Hunter Rider]

I didn’t realize they'd did a new version last year.

 

[AVEITWITHJAMON]

Tough one but gotta be the Mad Max V8 Interceptor for me, loved that car since I first saw it.

Also the Blues Brothers car should not have been missed off the list!

 

[Monsieur Xavier]

I didn’t realize they'd did a new version last year.

I was temped to watch it but the screenshots of the movie on IMDB dissuaded me.
I'm fan of the original movie.

 

[Spider-Fan83]

honorable mention:
’79 Corvette Stretch Limo from “Mystery Men”

(couldn't find better full pics of it)

 

[3rdstone]

I didn’t realize they'd did a new version last year.

I watched it, but not surprisingly it was quite forgettable.

 

[Breogan]

This isn't over yet;
The Batman is now the last to join the retro muscle club trend....

The Duke Boys....1969 Dodge Charger R/T (starts off black)

Max - 1973 Ford Falcon GT - V8

Punisher - 1969 Pontiac GTO

Blade - 1968 Dodge Charger

Deathproof Mike - 1970 Chevy Nova

Toretto - 1970 Dodge Charger R/T

Reyes' 1969 Hell Charger

The Batman shamelessly the last to jump on this cliche bandwagon, repurposed second-gen '68 to'70 Dodge Charger, custom elements invoke possible 60s/70s Cuda? Really a frankensteined custom hybrid with a rear engine and monster bumper, he's got the angst and money to take from the best.
