It is a LeSabre, the 1972 Centurion has a different grille with vertical bars and no portholes on it's hood (the ones on the passenger side are barely visible). |

If that's true then this is fascinating. I've loved this movie for a long time. I can get one of the mods/admins to add this vehicle to your "vehicles owned" page. ![]() I like these kinds of stories, I always wondered if people ever happened upon their very own cars in the backgrounds of movies before. |

Yes this is a true story. I would love to add more to this story. I was actually inside the pizza restaurant when this was being filmed i was in a bunch of other scenes as well and my car but this was the front and center shot. I had got all of my fraternity brothers in the movie as well.I was only 5 hours from securing my SAG card and scheduled to be in the movie Brubaker but broke up with the casting directors daughter and got ditched lol. Had many parties with Dennis Quaid and the rest of the actors and crew and was at all of the movie film shots. I was in the student leader scene in a green suit and as well in the big fight scene in the schools Union restaurant with Dan Stern swinging the bowling ball. I was in the center front row of that in a white and blue frat shirt had a beard in that scene then shaved it for the student leader scene. See if you can find me lol. It was a fun experience for a teenager at the time and never expected it to become a cult type 4 star movie. Many great memories. -- Last edit: 2017-07-15 19:49:09 |

Ugly ? You must be kidding. It's a beautiful car, one of my dream cars. What has she become (the car, not the girl) ? Beside the point, how is Bob Knight going ? |
