goblintruck1 ◊ 2010-06-10 03:40	what is the Red Car?
G-MANN ◊ 2010-06-10 03:47	It's those trams you see in the film.
goblintruck1 ◊ 2010-06-10 03:49	Are they based on anything? -- Last edit: 2010-06-10 03:55:04 (G-MANN)
G-MANN ◊ 2010-06-10 03:58	I think the Red Car was a name for the Pacific Electric Railway. If you're asking about the trams (or whatever they're called in America) used in this film, I don't know if they were the real thing or just replicas. I too used to wonder what the Red Car was when I watched this film as a kid. -- Last edit: 2010-06-10 04:03:25

14stutz ◊ 2010-09-09 06:59	For the streetcar seen with the Buick.... The 1930s replica streetcar was made for the movie by Dean Jeffries. It's based on GMC bus chassis and was stretched to 65 feet. It's aluminum skin on a steel framework, simulated rivets are wood dowels sanded to shape and glued on before painting. Fiberglasss covers in the shape of streetcar trucks cover the bus' real wheels. It was built in one month at a cost of $200,000. (Source: Dean Jeffries by Tom Cotter, MBI Publishing, 2009. Pgs 171-173) -- Last edit: 2013-04-12 20:57:56 (G-MANN)
CRAFT372 ◊ 2013-04-11 22:26	Do any of you think that Benny The Cab should be added to the list ? -- Last edit: 2013-04-11 22:32:05
G-MANN ◊ 2013-04-11 22:37	No, just in the commments.
puterboy1 ◊ 2013-04-12 01:28	I found this site containing a few behind the scenes photographs showing some of the cars, said to be from the Bill Volkmer collection as most of them are of the red car: http://www.davesrailpix.com/pe/perr.htm
mike962 ◊ 2013-04-12 09:28	I guess commander 57 must be happy with this movie, no classic car got trashed in this movie only the 39 Plyoumoth Deluxe got a bit of damage but totally repearable -- Last edit: 2013-04-12 09:29:40
cko ◊ 2013-04-12 18:25	I went on a guided studio tour many years ago, and they had the "crashed" car. There were 3 of them parked together, with different degrees of damage.One was untouched, the other 2 damaged, and I thought the tour guide said they did that so they could replace 1 car with a damaged,pre-crashed car for the next scene.If anyone wants to prove otherwise, please do so we can set the record straight.
Richard Davies ◊ 2018-08-25 18:21	Does Benny the Cab deserve a "Made For Movie" mention?
mike962 ◊ 2019-03-26 19:16	the Blu-Ray is dissapointing here you actually see a bit LESS on the edges on Bluray and except being obviously bigger the image quality isn't better than on DVD DVD Bluray -- Last edit: 2024-04-04 15:23:14
Nightrider ◊ 2019-03-26 19:54	mike962 wrote Bluray so personally won't bother with this one Hm. It's just me did something with player settings, or... -- Last edit: 2019-03-26 19:55:07
mike962 ◊ 2019-03-26 20:01	nope see shot from here Link to "www.blu-ray.com" https://images.static-bluray.com/reviews/7675_2.jpg same edges usually you do a bit more on the edges of Bluray than DVD but here it's the other way -- Last edit: 2019-03-26 20:03:36
Nightrider ◊ 2019-03-26 20:03	OK, maybe I still will bother. Maybe not.
mike962 ◊ 2019-03-26 20:04	Nightrider wrote OK, maybe I still will bother. Maybe not. maybe BARB WIRE ould use your attention recently released again on Blu-Ray or FREEJACK (1992) -- Last edit: 2019-03-26 20:11:17
Nightrider ◊ 2019-03-26 20:28	I rather dislike Pam) There is one B (or rather C) movie, that would be nice to add, but I wasn't able to find anything from it, except for short clip. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0160996/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2UM4--NaTsA But there was planes, I remember for sure)
mike962 ◊ 2019-03-26 20:33	the only film I know the title off and couldn't find it is the 3000 mile chase and only this scene is of it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZMrjT55VzxU
Nightrider ◊ 2019-03-26 20:39	Hm. But our Barb Wire pictures so bad, that I probably will take it. sigh Casablanca with boobies.

train68 ◊ 2019-09-12 01:53	Rest in peace, Richard Williams.
Cinetic ◊ 2020-05-01 02:55	I'm looking for the maker and model of a red car, but not the one you guys are apparently talking about in this thread. Mine is a burgundy sedan on the bridge at the 59:41 mark. Sorry I don't have a screenshot, but I'm watching it on Disney and they disabled the feature.
