some fun vehicles in the Disney movie Million Dollar Duck, and shocking for a Disney movie, an Intermeccanica Italia



if anyone realizes they have these cars because the license plates match.... that would be epic!




here's my guess why it's in this movie (there are only 4 ever in tv shows and movies according to IMCDB)... it's made in California, and, the came company made the Apollo GT, and Vette Ventura and Disney used an Apollo GT as the Thorndyke Special in The Love Bug. I'll guess they made a deal to get their cars into Disney movies   https://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2013/01/the-thorndyke-special-64-apollo-3500-gt.html





they crashed it?

The Vetta Ventura brochure and owner's manual. Only 19 produced









After the production of the Apollo, Intermeccanica then supplied the bodies to a firm in Texas, which used them to make a car called the Vetta Ventura.

Production of the Apollo was resumed in 1964 but this venture was dead by the following year. In all 88 Apollos were made, together with 19 Vetta Venturas, and is considered a "Texas Apollo". This car is not to be confused with the Warrior, made about the same time, in the same city, by a company with a similar name. 19 vehicles were produced.

Just happened across this car collection... wow!

Rarest of all, a supercharged Avanti II, one of one! I'll post more about this one

A 66 convertible Corvette caught my eye when I drove by, so I backed up and stopped to talk cars and was very surprised to be welcomed as an acquaintance, and allowed to take these pictures (sorry about the lousy quality... indoors/low light/ simple camera ) and I learned a lot, but so fast I can recall little... sad about memory loss!

a late 60's Intermeccanica Italia which I'll post specifically about

A Miami Vice tv show car which I'll post more about

a rare red on red convertible air conditioned bucket bench seat

a sweet t'bird, and there were also another similar Mustang, a early Datsun Z
