"Riptide" with Joe Penny and Perry King featured a red 59-60 with flames and "True Lies" with Arnold Schwartenegger test driving a 59-60 (may have been the same car) with the sleazy used car salesman.

Le Mans movie, starring Steve McQueen, showed 917's, 908's, 512's and a couple of real Corvette racers, L88/ZL1 powered. Several scenes including the race start, show a yellow car and a blue car, 68 or 69 cars.

The yellow convertible appears several times in the movie, even in the rain, moving its rear wheels side by side after dealing with tetre rouge corner...

Wonderful

Oh, don't forget the 1978 movie, "Corvette Summer". The car was an abomination, but I just loved Annie Potts playing the wannabe hooker in Las Vegas. -Clark

the 1967 convertible used in "Con Air"
there where three 67s bought for the movie.
two where bought on the morning at the pomona swap meet .
the other from Chevs and Vettes in AZ.
by a company called runway productions.
the one you see behind the airplane was a fiberglass mold they took off one of the cars.
the car you see hitting the ground ,was real . it hit so hard it broke off the knock off wheel.that car, the day before, they dropped it from the crane . was the one doing 140 mph in the desert.
I know this because i bought that car and was there.

Wayne,

I also clearly remember the C2 in Bullit.

No one has mentioned the 63's in the Elvis race movie. What was it called? Speedway??
Was it Jack N. who drove the C3 on the beach in ? Terms of endearment??
What about Larry and his green C3 vert on Bewitched.
