Another group puzzle? Yes. Another movie puzzle? Yes.
But a puzzle dealing with movies that are dealing mostly with cars.
12 films, 12 cars (same make, same year, exact same model most of the time). The pictures of the cars do not come from the film. They are all in black and white. All the cars shown play an important part in the film. Not usually the main part as it would be too easy. But they're not background cars. No police car, for instance.
Some of the films are well known, some rather obscure. The film frames are in color or black and white. There may be B&W frames of color films because I had nothing else.
The cars are quite easy to recognize. The trick is to find in what film they appear.
Each pair wins a point. Partial answers are not accepted.
Have fun.
Now the cars, as soon as this thing works.

All right, all right, that was an easy one, some will say, but do they remember Wolfman Jack in the film?
And who's driving the T-Bird? (no point for that, a free one).

Well they go together, just not in your quiz!  ;D

I think the car is a Woodhile Wildfire; no idea on the movie.

There is a Victress in Johnny Dark, but it's not his car.
Wheels F is not a Woodhill Woodfire. I guess you know where to find information about all this.

Don't be so sure. One could say at least one boob is on display in this thread after all.  :D

Not being a native english speaker, I didn't get that one. But watch your language or I let that boob be seen, and not in the risque section.

I meant I'm a boob, for guessing both a car and  movie that aren't in this puzzle.

Oh, you meant that kind of Boob!
I said that F was not a LaDawri, not a Victress and not a Woodhill. Where did I say that Johnny Dark wasn't in this puzzle?

Yes, and yes, and well done!
Only one player? This is cult movies about cars we'te talkin about here, not forgotten western sidekicks. I am happy to see that we have at least one movie connoisseur in this bunch (not to mention an Elvis connoisseur, a legendary race car connoisseur, and a fiberglass sportscar connoisseur).

I would call myself a movie connoisseur, but being born in the Seventies, I have large holes in my knowledge about the Fifties and Sixties... so I'm leaving this one for the ones who know what they're talking about.

The car is a 59 Chevy of course, not a Biscayne. Movie 9 is not Badlands. There is a 59 Biscayne in Badlands but it's a background car, and I didn't put any background cars in this puzzle.
In our film, this 59 Chevy has a much more important role.
