Favorite Hot Rod scenes in newer movies

Now,I know the cl***ics,like American Graffiti,but there are some great hot roddin' scenes in newer movies too.Here's one for instance:
Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull intro

i thought it was good but wasnt the movie supposed to be based in like 53-55

 

whats your point?...

unfortunatly in new movies you rarley ever see "hot rods"... if theres any car of interest in the movie, its always a muscle cars...

 

Okay?Your point?

So it's based '53 to '55,looks like a model A vs. a shoebox Ford to me,both pre '53,so it's pretty correct for the time

 

Iron man when he is messing with the flattmotor

 

I like Iron man taking apart the flathead I built.

 

I liked the opening scene of the latest Indiana Jones...

 

I know that I am picking at a small point, but in the Indiana Jones movie the shoebox Ford had radial tires on it.

 

Well re: the last Indiana Jones movie...the kid rides an Indian motorcycle with master cylinders for the brakes and clutch up on the handlebars...I thought that was a fairly modern idea. The continuity guy must be kinda young(?)

 

Metallica Some kinda Monster, the movie they made. I like the bit where hetfield gets pulled over

When I was sitting in the theatre watching that movie, the radials on the shoebox Ford really jumped out and broke the period feel for me. Anyone else notice that?

 

Yeah, it was a Twin Cam made up to look like a Knuckle.

 

Care to expand on that?

 

Or a tuner...

That clip from Indiana Jones is so cool! I love it!

 

Duece of Spades movie &it's not even been released yet<<<

 

Good eye,except it's not an Indian.
The motorcycle involved is a Harley Davidson Softail Springer which was originally built as a Springer Cl***ic but was modified to fit in with the 1957 setting of the film.
The twin cam engine is not period correct, either is the front disc brake. Neither were available during the period the film takes place.

 

I was zoning out to an "NCIS" rerun marathon the other day...the weird science chick was driving a really clean little Model A...I don't get out to the movies, so this is the best I can do

 

H&H Flatheads built the engine in the 32 in Iron Man. I built it about 5 years ago. I put a few pictures of it on my web site before the flamed it.

 

that video makes me want to get my *** off the compter and go work on my car. damn i wish that thing was done

 

Wow, that's a neat bit of trivia. Is the car owned by the studio, or one of the movie car suppliers, or a private owner?

 

There's Hot Rods in New Movies? I'll stick to American Graffiti,Two Lane Black Top,Hollywood Knights and all the Teen "B" Movies of the 50's and early 60's.

 

Amen to that! Hard to beat the old "B" movies as well for authenticity.

My favorite is where Annette dumps ol' Frankie and slides into the p***enger seat of my '64 Belvedere Max Wedge car and we rumble off into the sunset...

OK,it was just a dream;don't bust my nuts.

 

check out the tires on the bike in indiana jones also. i call B.S.

 

Most of the "car" scenes in "HOT ROD GIRLS SAVE THE WORLD"...........

 

Pretty sure that is Favreau's car

 

I cringe when I watch any movie made after the 1980's thats supposed to depict the 50's and 60's and Have period correct cars in them.
I watched a movie that was supposed to be like 1957 and a 55 Chevy was in the parking lot with Flippin Centerline wheels and 50 series tires on it..Stuff like that will anger me..

 

yes its favreau's car

 

i like cobra hahaha

 

I can't remember what the name of it was but I think it was a recent Disney movie I was watching with the kids. The grandfather was in the garage telling the kids about all the trophies and pictures on the walls. Didn't pay it much mind till I noticed in the beams was a belly tank salt car. The kids were later making noises pretending to drive an all black fenderless 32 5w in the garage.

 

I heard that the Deuce in the Indiana Jones movie was owned personally by George Lucas, I don't know if thats true or not ...
