Movie vehicles

[06impala]

I just spent 4 days last week on the set of Transformers II in Bethleham,Pa. Unfortunately, I can't really speak too much of what went on, but I can tell you this, there are some really cool vehicles, 2 Mack Rawhides, 1 sleeper,1 day cab, both chromed out, an Audi A-4 silver and black carbon-fiber, 3 Cannondales with custom body work, 5 brand new Chevy Malibu's painted like Chinese police cars, and a whole host of Vespa's and other brand scooters. Now, on the military side, Cobra's, Apaches, Blackhawks, A-10's, the real deal, not computer generated. One of the "birds' will have a mini-gun attached that fire 4000 rounds a minute. Does anyone do models of cool movie vehicles?

I take it the bird with the mini gun is an A10 Thunderbolt a.k.a. "Warthog" with the Vulcan cannon?

The pics are from a military airshow i went to last month at the nearby AFB.

I have a few movie vehicle kits buy none are big trucks.
Ghostbusters- Ecto 1 (59 Cadillac ambulance)
Back to the future- Delorean
Mad Max "The Road Warrior"- V8 Interceptor (73 Fprd Falcon XB GT Coupe)
Dukes of Hazzard- General Lee (69 Dodge Charger R/T)

I plan on building the 68 Charger R/T from the movie Bullitt now that Revell has reaeased a new 68 Charger R/T kit.

A-10 Thunderbolt II. Definately something you do not want to see when you're in a tank. Love that plane.

As far as movie/TV vehicles go, I'd like to do the "Movin' On" KW, the "Smokey & the Bandit" KW, & the "Blue Mule" Ford WT9000.

You wont find a 72 Road Runner kit only a 71 GTX kit and if you are lucky, one of the 71 Satelitte kits. You can however find the 74 GTX kit (Daisy did use a 74 Road Runner after Bo and Luke destroyed the 72 before she got the Jeep) which can easily be turned into a Road Runner. Was Boss Hoggs Cadillac a Deville or the Eldorado?

what about jesses truck (1973 ford f100)

Boss' License Plate: BOSS 1

Whatever it was Boss was into, he did it in style. That included the car he drove. Boss' car was a stock 1970 Cadillac Deville convertible. It was white on white with steer horns on the hood and a vanity plate that said it all, "BOSS 1." Boss' caddy had a CB in the back and a car phone. You can also spot a trailer ball hitch on the back of the first Caddys even though Boss never towed anything.
