I don't recall it being a Crewcab, and I thought it was an older model..

But you can buy one if you'd like....

the mustang at the end of Fast and the Furious 3, i think there was a 67 to 72 crew cab in "A Walk to Remember" or was it American Pie? some teen movie had that truck in it though.

the Expeditoin in I am Legand was nice same with the GT500

I liked Daisey Dukes jeep, but only if she is in it at the time!

1956markII, word up on "Mad, Mad World". It and "Dr. Strangelove" are my two favorite movies. "One Eyed Jacks" with Marlon Brando I guess would be third, Or maybe "Alien". Anyway, in "Mad, Mad World", I liked the tow truck from the two goofy guys' gas station Jonathon Winters was driving. And also the '47(?) Ford(?) ragtop Phil Silvers was driving. All the cars in that movie are nice to see. Even the cop cars and taxi cabs.

I'm gonna have to say the 68-72 Nova in the first part of "Death Proof" was pretty cool.

"Dazed and Confused" had some pretty cool cars in it.

But I have to say that the 76 Trans Am in "Smokey" was uber cool. He drove that thing at 110mph for 1800 miles, jumped it, slid it around corners, smoked the tires in almost every scene and only gassed it up once! I want a car like that!!

Wild 'n crazy cars from old films.

1937 Buick Convertible customized by Bowman & Schwartz of Pasadena, CA, used in the film TOPPER (1937).

The outlandish car (I forget its name) used by Professor Fate (Jack Lemmon) in THE GREAT RACE (1965).

The Batmobile used in the 1960's BATMAN TV show and TV movie of the same name. The Batmobile started life as a Ford "Dream Car" built for the autoshow circuit = 1955 Lincoln Futura. George Barris removed the plexiglas roof, added a few gizmos and repainted the car...everything else you see is just about the same as it was in 1955.

1932 Duesenberg Model J used in WHAT EVER HAPPENED TO BABY JANE (1962). For the wreck scene, the Duesenberg's fender and lamps were removed, a 1932 Chrysler Imperial fender and lights were used instead. Then they ran the car into the gate. Doozy fenders and especially the lights were hard to find, even back then.

The 1929 Isotta Fraschini Landaulet with real leopard skin upholstery used in the film SUNSET BOULEVARD (1950).

This car and the Duesenberg were both owned by Pacific Auto Rentals, the first (1937) company to rent vehicles to the studios.

Since I knew the owner, I got to drive most of his old cars (he had 100's). I drove some of his in a few films (background shots), and I also drove my own cars in some films (more background shots). I rented cars to the studios at one time.

Don't know if it was ever in a movie, but if music videos count, I'm down with ZZ Top's '39 Lincoln Zephyr Coupe. That car is just filthy!
