Sorry if posted already, check out the 72 in the movie Troll. Its "the queen,s favorite".

Here's a video, though it misses the coolest part where it's in a garage. Neat how the tailgate shuts all by itself;)

Cool to see a C/20 whippin' it!

I was gripping on ''Goats'' a David Duchovny project in 2010, and the DP shot an ECU of the chrome grille of my '71 Jimmy -- panning off right, to focus on the hero car, as they pull up to a ''Mexican cathouse.'' It was shot in Downtown Tucson.

very cool. I still haven't heard or seen much news about the film we were working. The truck wasnt used as much as my Camaro, will probably have a higher chance of seeing it as I did alot more work with it at the various locations around Portland. It was a fun experience, never did it before with an actual production crew.

Re: movie trucks

Not the best screenshot pic, but here is a 71 or 72 model on Tulsa King. I've seen it on several of the episodes.

Re: movie trucks

As much as I like these bodies unaltered, I have also always had a thing for flared fenders. These trucks sort of have them already. I like this truck. As widespread as all sorts of styling trends have spread across the country, pre-runner trucks have never hit the mainstream. It's cool they chose a not so typical truck. Really cool truck!

It’s driven by Stallone’s character’ partner with the bar/casino. You can see it in the parking lot among other shots that character is in.

Thomas Rhett has a Fritos commercial out with a red 69-72

Re: movie trucks

And then in watching Hobbs and Shaw, there’s a 67 in the Somoa scenes.

Re: movie trucks

There was some discussion of '72 GMC K/2500 Suburban last seen in a Black/White police panda suit, used as the hero car in ''Dark Winds'' about the Navajo Tribal Police. While watching the trailer clips from the 2022-23 series on IMDb, I saw a bronze green/tan vinyl topped '73 Lincoln Continental -- bad guy car? -- charging at 60 MPH at the camera during a heist episode. I'm almost sure that was my Dad's Lincoln. It had a 460 big block, and would pass anything on the highway but a gas station. I sold it around 2004 to a guy from work. He never got it legally registered in Arizona. I got an Abandoned Vehicle notice from the MVD that included a $500 fine. I got out of it after some sweating, since it was registered in my Dad's name and he was deceased.
Someone must have picked it up at an impound auction in Tucson, worked on it and turned it around as a picture car for this ''Dark Winds'' show set on the Navajo Rez.
Only difference was the dual headlights had these flapper doors controlled by vacuum hoses. My Dad hated the idea that the headlight covers might get stuck in the ''down'' position, so he tied them up with baling wire. Whoever fixed this car got them working right.
Tried to bag a screenshot, but I could not get it.
Not a GM product, but it was of personal interest.
Haven't seen the AMC series, but it looks good.

Re: movie trucks

Not a movie but my truck was in a local commercial a few years ago.

Here is the link.
