The black bodyside trim would indicate a 1985+ version, and it looks like it has the 1985+ bumpers, so I think Karoomay was asking to pin down the year. Was the front end the more rounded 1985+ model or the boxy 1981-84 version? -- Last edit: 2014-08-27 01:59:54

Also Terra, always try to capture useful shots (e.g. front, back, sides, etc.) of a car seen in a movie instead of relying on one image because more images usually help to narrow down identification. -- Last edit: 2014-08-27 02:24:13

I'll do that for now on, thanks
