In this action movie filmed in Istanbul, Turkey; a man is kidnapped and smuggled out of the city in a white Splittie ambulance. When you first see it driving by in the parking garage, it's clearly a Barndoor due to lack of roof overhang above windshield. Small, low profile "Lucas-style" front blinkers. Right front wheel has a hubcap, and there's a black siren on the roof. Following shots, especially at the pier, shows a post-barndoor with bullet turn signals, red roof siren, and the hubcap is missing. Main character Tony Mecenas (German actor Horst Buchholz) is in the red towel. |
