ahhh, here I thought it would be the Sean Penn movie since it was made in the 80's.

I'm watching Breaking Bad on Netflix right now, and it's actually Season 2, Episode 11 right at the beginning where the brown Eagle wagon is shown. The guy walks up to the car and does a drug deal, then they flash to the rear of the car and there is no license plate. It's a pretty good looking wagon. Wonder if that one bounces  :blob1: :rotfl:

Way back from 1985, probably a brand new Eagle or Concord. Star Tribune from Cheyenne, Wyoming

Ill bet that photo is of the August 1, 1985 flood in Cheyenne, which was the most destructive flood in Wyoming's history. Cheyenne received around 7" of rainfall within 3 hours which caused Dry Creek to swell to the size of a river submerging cars and property. It racked up a total of $65 million in damages (about $120 million in today's market) and resulted in 70 injuries and 12 deaths.

7" would be about a half a year's worth of rain in Cheyenne, all packed into 3 hours!  Holy deluge!

just got the game Driver San Fransisco and it has a Hudson Hornet, AMC Pacer, and what appears to be an 80's CJ5. i'm not all the way through the game yet so there may be more but that's all i've seen so far. oh and i should add that they actually used the real names for the cars in this game.
