The single cab starts showing up early and is all the way through, owned by the bad guy, Mr. Skeeter. How do I know? I watched the whole thing! Ahhh, the "Lassie" years, back when a good collie did crime-fighting and saved Timmy, kittens, baby pigs, you name it. |
Funny you should pop up as you have the same SC; don't you? |

El Chapo on Netflix. Tons of Bugs but this was the first Bus I saw on the show. Not an old movie but a split sighting nonetheless.

From Russia with Love - red/white split tails 007 all the way from Airport to Station T Turkey
First spotted in this thread in 2009 - and by me in 2015, but so what?

I don't generally post here, but I saw this nice splitty driven by the bad guy in "The Hunter" (1980), with Steve McQueen.
I've not read the whole 8 pages of thread content, but a search for "hunter" did not show any relevant results, so I hope the post is not a duplicate. A few Beetles also appear in the movie, but I just posted the interesting one here to keep things on topic

Seems like the bus was quite prevalent in that movie!?!

I wonder if any of these cars are studio property - for instance, is the Red/White Split in James Bond' the same on in the David Janseen movie? A bit far apart, 10 years...Hmmm.
