crex ◊ 2005-12-10 13:02	Pontiac LeMans?
Saturn Simon ◊ 2005-12-10 15:25	1966 Pontiac GTO
crex ◊ 2005-12-10 15:50	... or a 1966-1967 Pontiac LeMans
Jaqob P. ◊ 2006-01-17 19:19	'67, you can see by the form of the hood.
TMAC396 ◊ 2006-02-15 18:13	Definitely a 1967 LeMans
Carfan ◊ 2006-08-29 02:36	Why does the picture look squished?
Neptune ◊ 2007-11-04 19:46	Beautiful car (for me the most remembered vehicle in the film) For some reason, its this particular Pontiac LeMans/GTO (though we have lots of other Pontiacs on the site) that reminds me of the IMCDb logo ...

chicomarx ◊ 2008-09-06 05:13	This car in each of the three colorized versions: The first: Hal Roach Studios in the 80's, yellow car and green zombies. The second: made by Hal Roach too but released by Anchor Bay (and Stax Entertainment) Blue car and it has flesh coloured zombies. And the third: from 2004 by 20th Century Fox. It has a red car and some kind of green zombies. Actually I think green would be the right choice for zombies/deteriorating corpses. I've seen Dr. G.
Skid ◊ 2009-02-07 06:50	Funny, actually: I saw several behind-the-scenes color photos of the filming on a "Living Dead" fansite a couple of years ago, and they showed the car was actually light metallic green! None of the colorized versions quite got it right! An interesting piece of trivia: This car was actually borrowed (it belonged to one of the actor's in-laws, I believe) and was used as transportation by practically everybody working on the film. Someone using the car was involved in an accident which bent the driver's side of the car severely, so ever resourceful, the director inserted the shot of the car being pushed a long a tree, to make it appear as if hitting the tree stopped it and damaged it.
DM-491 ◊ 2013-02-10 01:23	Actually Neptune, I think this LeMans is the one in the logo. It's at the exact same angle as the one in the main picture and the color could be the same.
micahcarey ◊ 2013-05-18 22:34	The actual color of this car was 'Palmetto Green' a Pontiac stock shade at the time!
micahcarey ◊ 2013-05-18 22:36	And the car did not belong to an "In law" of one of the actors. The car belonged to Josephine Streiner. the mother of actor/producer Russ Streiner (Johnny) and his brother Gary Streiner who appeared a posse member as well as handling most of the audio work. -- Last edit: 2013-05-18 22:37:28
DM-491 ◊ 2016-04-05 01:37	I'm trying to place the road and bridge seen in the title screen, but it doesn't look familiar. The countryside hasn't changed that much since '68 (few things change in Butler County), but its escaping me.
supcoach ◊ 2016-09-28 00:49	Obviously, you all missed that it is a hardtop coupe NOT a sedan
guzzidude ◊ 2018-10-30 17:46	Real Color. Notice the title on his clacker... "Flesh Easters" -- Last edit: 2018-10-30 17:50:20 (kegare)
CarSpecialist ◊ 2019-03-09 09:15	There were two separate LeMans used in this movie. The one that hit the tree was a bluish green color with a black top. The one that never hit the tree was red with a white top. You could not tell the difference because this film was made in black and white. They were both a 1967 LeMans
Skid ◊ 2019-11-07 20:06	From the pic above, the factory color appears to be Linden Green. From other details, it appears to have a 326 V8, column shift automatic, and apparently factory A/C.
