The Junkman

The Junkman Is a 1982 American independent action comedy film, which spent two years in production. To make the film, H. B. Halicki used his own personal collection of over 200 cars, toys, and guns—including Eleanor, the star of his 1974 cult classic Gone in 60 Seconds. It is a sequel to Gone in 60 Seconds (1974) and the second installment in the Gone in 60 Seconds film series. It presents Gone in 60 Seconds and Deadline Auto Theft as films within a film. The opening car chase sequence, which involves a 1974 Bricklin SV-1, is part of Deadline Auto Theft's storyline. In the film, a man hires contract killers and tasks them with killing his brother-in-law, who he resents. The target figures out that he has an enemy within his own company, but still wants to attend the premiere of his recently completed film.
