Also-Ran Movie Cars

Any blue Chevy pulling a small church...I figure that'd be the one, yeah.

I have that kit that I built while watching the show.

The troop carrier from "Aliens"

The 6000 SUX from "Robocop"

Not a movie car per se:

Ducky's Morgan Roadster

Buford T. Justice's Pontiac cop car:

Daisy Duke's Golden Eagle CJ-7--- ahhh....Catherine Bach in her prime! Ok, Ok---that was a TV show...but I don't care dammit!

The fullsize jeep pickups in Tremors and Twister

The Landmaster from Damnation Alley

Did you just mention Sorcerer? Classic.

Uhhhh, this

Perhaps the greatest also-ran ever...Cameron's Saab. Which is pretty cool, until you see Dad's car.

Warren Oats' GTO from "Two Lane Blacktop."

That's not a Saab and we covered that already! It's an Alfa Romeo Alfetta sedan

The ill-fated Miura from The Italian Job (yeah...the wreck was just a chassis/shell).

The ill-fated Jaguar XKE from The Italian Job

The ill-fated Lancia Flaminia done up to look like Charlie's DB4 from The Italian Job.

I can't post pictures at work, but what about Harold's Jaguar hearse in Harold and Maude?

The GTO was more of a costar than an also-ran. It and the '55 Chevy were certainly better actors than any of the people in the movie.

I posted that as EVERYONE remembers the 55, not as many think of the GTO at first.

Daisy Duke's Roadrunner.

Is this from "Quicksilver?!"

If so, wow. That's obscure--and I'm into bicycles.

I like all of the bicycle-related ones here. I forgot about the Buick from Breaking Away. The Masi that's on the roofrack is worth a lot of money now.

Richard Pryor's Saab in "Moving"

Before

After:

Duel was an also ran movie so I believe both star cars qualify.

The star of the gumball rally were the Ferrari and the Cobra so here are some of my other favorites.

The Little Mule from "Romancing the Stone."
