Classic Cars You Have Seen in Movies

Classic Cars You Have Seen in Movies
You have seen then in many movies, The Fast and Furious chain, Mad Max, or James Bond, and we all love them and want one. Popular Mechanics put together a list of cars that have been seen in classic movies, some you have seen and some you need to go out and rent, trust me.

Check Them Out

  • 1964 Aston Martin DB5, Goldfinger- James Bond's legacy of famous cars and far-out gadgets can be traced back from one car—the 1964 Aston Martin DB5 007 driven in Goldfinger and Thunderball. Even without the spy modifications, (included ram bumper, machine guns, ejector seat, smoke screen, or oil-slick sprayer), it is still a work of art.
  • 1977 Pontiac Trans Am, Smokey and the Bandit- Director Hal Needham couldn't have predicted the impact that car would have on America. After audiences saw that Trans Am slide around corners, leap over broken bridges and evade Sheriff Buford T. Justice, they wanted to be behind the wheel of a black and gold T/A. Sales leaped by about 30,000 cars from 1977 to 1978 and by another 24,000 for 1979.
  • 1932 Ford Coupe, American Graffiti- Some might not know, but George Lucas shot American Graffiti, a reflection of his memories of the car culture in California in the 1960s. The recognized Deuce Coupe was powered by a Chevy 327 V8 and sits a little tall in the rear for some seriously cool rake.
  • 1981 DeLorean DMC-12, Back to the Future- Let's not forget this little gem. John DeLorean's DMC-12 was a stainless steel stunner designed by the legendary Giorgetto Giugiaro and under the hood, a pokey 130-hp 2.9-liter V6. Its futuristic looks combined with a bit of movie magic gave the DeLorean legendary status, but in real life, the DeLorean flopped on the market in the 1980s.

Keeping Your Car Clean

Keeping Your Car Clean Owning a car comes with a lot of responsibility. And managing your car can become expensive, you need to register it, buy insurance, and maintain it. Another one of those responsibilities is keeping your vehicle clean, inside and out. With so many products and car care advice out there, it can be hard to pick what is right for your vehicle. Below are a few myths and facts that you may have wondered about, such as types of car soap, supplies, and other topics. This or That There might have come a time that you were out of car soap or heard from someone that dish detergent will clean your car. Well, it would CLEAN your vehicle, but dish detergent will actually speed up oxidation on the paint, and it will lead to a degradation of the paint job. A shiny car isn’t necessarily a clean car. To honestly know if your vehicle is clean, you should feel the paint to see if it feels glossy and not coarse. If it feels more like sandpaper, then the car isn’t clean, a...
