Brian,
If I recall correctly, the car in "The Last Run" was a BMW 502, a precursor,
if you will, of the infamous 507. Many people say that the car in the movies
was a 507, but the car in the movie had a back seat, which no 507 ever had.

These may not be great flicks, but they're worth a look for most members of
this list: Thunder Road, with Robert Mitchum as a 50's moonshine
runner--and singing the title tune; and The Last Run, with George C. Scott
as a getaway driver in a car I don't think I recognized when I saw the
movie, much less remember now.
