The independent action comedy film, The Junkman (1982), took two years to produce and features over 200 cars from H. B. Halicki’s personal collection. The plot centers on Harlan B. Hollis, who faces a life-threatening situation when his brother-in-law, a jealous public relations manager, hires assassins to eliminate him before the premiere of his latest film at the Cinerama Dome. At the start of the movie, head hitman Frank Spyros receives instructions for the hit on Hollis while he is driving to a festival in Cholame, California. Meanwhile, an unknown person watches a video showcasing Hollis’s life and then discards it along with a publicity photo of Hollis.
Following this, Hollis is presented with a photo recovered from the destroyed remains of an air cover aircraft. Upon recognition, he realizes that the picture was never meant to be released and implicates someone within his own company as his potential murderer. To investigate further, he uses the Goodyear Blimp to travel to the Cinerama Dome where the premiere is taking place. There, he uncovers the individual responsible to be Fox, who then unexpectedly falls off the edge of the theater roof. Following this revelation, Clark’s team discovers a bomb in their limo and quickly throws it into a nearby parking lot, causing significant damage when it detonates and destroys several cars.
