This 1971 Ford Mustang Sportsroof became Eleanor, the only car in movie history to receive on-screen star billing, thanks to director H.B. Halicki’s dangerously ambitious 1974 chase picture Gone in 60 Seconds. Dozens of cars were destroyed, Halicki broke his own back finishing the shoot, and the result is still studied by stunt coordinators fifty years later. See why this scrappy, low-budget original still outshines its famous modern remake.
