American movie 70's or 80s (fairly sure) had Dabney Coleman in a scene where he is driving a "roundtail" Alfa Romeo Spider ('66-'69) on a freeway near a major city. He flips out and drives underneath a tractor-trailer "semi" next to him, i.e. underneath the trailer, and then decides to drive back out, as if suicide is not the solution. The Alfa was red and had the top down. He is . Have searched everywhere and can't find name of movie. Anybody remember this one?

Sounds like "Short Time" (1985) with Dabney Coleman & Matt Frewer. He played a cop who mistakenly believed he was terminally ill. His police pension will only pay out if he's killed in the line of duty, so he takes crazy risks.

Hi, I'm new here. I'm trying to find a movie car that's not on the site. Can anyone help me? My email is busntruck@yahoo.ca It's a brown hot rod '57 chevy 2 dr. in Austraila or New Zealand from about the '70s or so. A blind guy drove it with his wife telling him where to steer. Later he lets a young kid drive it.
thanks Pat
