I know that this one has alreeady been named, but I have to add that the car is still in good hands. I saw it on display just last year at the Valley Forge, PA. overnight stopover of "The Hemmings Motor News Great Race". The current owner of "The Leslie Special" is none other thanthe great-grandson of George Schuster, the man who drove the Thomas Flyer in the REAL 1907 New-York-to-Paris "Great Race".

How about "The Kings of Mykonos"?

While I'm at it, let me bump a couple of cars I've posted over the last few days. There have been a couple of incorrect guesses onthe Caddy, but everybody is quiet on the big Buick. (Once again, I apologize for the lousy job I did editing out an identifyable person from the Buick's photo... I'm no Harry!) My hint was that both of these cars are seen regularly in current TV shows, although maybe not every episode.:

Very close Jim, in fact I'll give you that one mate, well done!

The "Wog Boy" was the first movie, then they came out with Wog Boy 2 Kings of Mykonos....

Cheers

Ray

ps: The car is a 1969 Chrysler Valiant VF Hardtop ;)

"Toni" Curtis? Peter "Faulk"? Give the fool who wrote that his just desserts:

"You're banished! I'm getting a new typesetter! Banished! Banished! Banished!" :lol:

By the way, I recall there was more than one Leslie Special built (three IIRC); this one's in the Tupelo Auto Museum:

Daddyfink, your blue T-Bird is from "Thelma and Louise", and the black Connie MkIII is from "The French Connection". I can't place the red '71 Impala ragtop, but ain't she a pretty thing?

@Chris- "To Live and Die in LA." Was gonna post that soon myself.

Very good! The '75 Impala convertible (CA license Z FATCAT) was being driven by my (then future) boss; and he wasn't a stunt driver either - just an extra. Since he didn't get a credit, I made this for him to hang in his office:
