Thanks. I was wondering what they were. The movie is set in Iowa, but appears to be shot in South Africa. It's pretty obvious at times, as there's many cars that weren't sold in the US visible and you can see that many of them are right hand drive.
Those ones had me confused though. The movie was released in 1994 and those all appeared to be much older cars which I didn't recognise. I also noticed that they were left hand drive, unlike the majority of the vehicles in the movie.
Nearly all of those cars are flipped over and blown up. There's a good few of them used and they're all similar looking. I thought it was just two models. I wonder why they had all those early to mid 70's American cars in South Africa in 1994? I doubt they imported them specifically for this movie, as if they were importing US police cars you'd expect them to choose a Caprice/Impala, Dodge Diplomat or Ford LTD Crown Victoria which wouldn't look out of place and would probably be quite cheap.

They were probably imported for previous films needing American cars, during the 1970s or 1980s. Perhaps they had been fitted with lightbars for whichever film they were used in first, and the producers of the 1994 film decided to use them and save the cost of dressing more modern models as police cars.
What's the name of the film?
