Doc McCoy (Steve McQueen) and his wife Carol (Ali MacGraw) have been running from the police in various getaway cars after robbing a bank in a small Texas town. With a police cruiser slowly following in an alley at a distance, they ditch their car and jump into a large trash bin that is not empty. The garbage truck happens to interrupt the police search, loads the bin and drives off. The next morning the truck drops its load into a large disposal dump. They seek cover in a half-cut Beetle shell.
In the background behind Doc you can get a glimpse of a white upside-down Ghia; looking closer it's a lowlight! |
