Lots of movies with 66-74 chargers in'em, a lot of them aren't that good...

Ghoste

Agreed.  It's actually a pretty big list as I've been collecting them myself for some time and even though I have a lot, there are a lot of them that are only worth looking at for the Charger.  (I wonder if the directors knew that?)

There was also one in the wedding singer.

I believe Jason Patric drove a 68 Charger in the 1991 movie Rush...


This Charger right here is a one of none, that means none before it, none to come.

"Gone in 60 seconds" the original film has a couple 3rd gens. a green one gets crushed by a garbage truck as i recall.

I know what your saying  :brickwall: I am after movies where the car is a feature or icon of the film like Bullitt, DMCL etc   

Ghoste

That narrows your list a lot.  In fact you have pretty much already mentioned them with the possible excedptions of "Collier & Co.- Hot Pursuit" and "The Hi-Riders".

stevekarlo

Did anyone mention "Dirty Mary and Crazy Larry" Starring Peter Fonda? 69 charger plus some big c-body cop cars. Saw part of it last night.

Ghoste

Yep, that's the "DMCL" you see abbreviated up there.  ;)

bsakal

The French Connection - there is a "T" colored '69 parked in one of the scenes, and also a white '68 parked in another.

Dirty Harry - When Harry Callahan is following Scorpio around the red light district, a '69 passes him, it's a night scene, but you can see the car pretty well and tell it's a '69
69 Charger SE - 66 Chrysler Newport 383

There is a 73-74 Yellow Charger at the beginning of Caddy-Shack :2thumbs:
Takes a MOPAR to catch a mopar!

In Two Lane Blacktop, the 55' Chevy gets tail-gated by a 70 Charger.

Managed to get a copy of this one above but "The Hi-Riders" is proving quite hard to get on DVD  :brickwall:

Seems very odd that some of these big data base movies sites Mention 73 or 74 Charger's in the Truck Turner movie but for some strange reason nobody mentions the Ultimate Charger. The 70 Super Coupe Charger Daytona convertible once owned by Raffi Mininasian that made a breif apperance in this movie.:scratchchin: :shruggy:

Also, Beside Ron Howard doing Grand Theft Auto he also did another car chase movie called "Eat my Dust" I'd Recommend viewing it (slightly) LEON

hemi-hampton

If I remember right, a mid 1970's made for TV movie starring Robert Culp & Called Outrage contained some Mopars. Dont forget the Hemi Cuda in Phantasm :o LEON.

I bought it on dvd somewhere but can't for the life of me remember where.

Found one I hadn't seen before. Black 68 in Mark Wahlberg's Rockstar.
Here's a clip. It's in the parking lot scene when they fight the other band over their fyers.
