Maindrian Pace (H.B. Halicki) is a master car thief who heads an elaborate organization of professionals. Using an insurance investigation company as a front, Pace and his associates buy junked cars from accident scenes, steal new autos of the same model and color, then switch the serial numbers for resale. It's a lucrative business, but when some shady characters offer them 400,000 dollars to deliver 50 specific luxury vehicles, the challenge is too much to pass up. The burglars put on disguises and waste no time in lifting limousines, official racecars, and Rolls-Royces (even stopping by a television studio to steal actor Lyle Waggoner's convertible). When Pace discovers that a recently stolen Cadillac has a million dollars worth of heroin in the trunk, he destroys the car and the drugs, which infuriates his adversarial partner, Eugene (Jerry Daugirda). Just as Pace is stealing a bright yellow Mustang (code-named Eleanor), the Los Angeles police department gives chase, tipped off by Eugene's anonymous call. This leads to the meat of the film, a wild 40-minute pursuit which takes Pace and the police through five cities and leads to the destruction of 93 cars. Gone in 60 Seconds was a big hit for first time director/writer/producer/star H.B. Halicki, and inspired a big-budget remake in 2000.

[h=3]Ray “Wightangel1” Mew[/h]What made this original so damn good , was the car chase at the end. H B HALICKI did all his own stunts ( he nearly came a cropper when telegraph pole came down too soon and nearly got him). He did two full films after this one ( but got killed whilst making another when he mis timed a water tank coming down and it landed on him and the car). Yes the man only wanted a film full of car chases etc , but what he made was 3 full on car chasing entertaining films. R.I.P HB HALICKI.

[h=3]Christopher Abernathy[/h]To all of you that enjoy the original.......I thank you. To the rest of you....... if it had not been for original, you would not have had the remake. Most of you may not have been alive then.... so do not bitch. $150, 000.00 budget, and it grossed $40, 000, 000.00 Light pole accident was not part of the script..... but kept in the film. Driver injured, filming stopped until he was better. Few other unscripted things kept in. Reseach people, and you may learn something. Simply enjoy!
