The robot from _Metropolis_. The pinball machine from the cafe in _Happy Days_ that Fonzi could always get free games from. (I collect pinball machines). ---

> [@Bullitt](#): > > Didn’t Mark Donohue die in a crash driving one? He did have a bad crash while testing a 917-10 in the early '70s, but died from a crash during practice for the Austrian Grand Prix in '75. I’m not exactly sure how much commonality there was between the Le Mans 917s and the versions Donohue raced in Can Am. (And before you think I’m some master of racing trivia, I had to look most of that up on Wikipedia. And since it was mentioned in this thread, figured I might as well share it here.) ---

My wants are modest compared to others… Does James Bond ever open his wallet and we get a glimpse of his license to kill? That’s what I’d want.\* And as a snowdome collector I’d definitely want the one showing the sled at the start of _Citizen Kane_ [Hopefully they used a couple of stand-ins to film the breakage and left the original intact] And does the Abbey in Downton Abbey count? - Just thinking - most drivers license photos make you look like a hired assassin, so would James Bond’s make him look more dangerous or benign? ---

And since it was mentioned in this thread, figured I might as well share it here.) Thanks. I was able to look it up now, too. He was driving a March 751. From Wikipedia: > [@](#): > > During a practice session for the race, Donohue lost control of his March (751) after a tire failed, sending him careening into the catch fencing at the fastest corner on the track, Vöest Hügel Kurve. A track marshal was killed by debris from the accident, but Donohue did not appear to be injured significantly. It is said that Donohue’s head struck either a catch fencing post or the bottom of the wood frame for an advertising billboard located alongside of the racetrack. A headache resulted, however, and worsened. After going to the hospital of Graz the next day, Donohue lapsed into a coma from a cerebral hemorrhage and died.

Getting back to the thread, as a young teenager and car fan, the 1976 movie, _The Gumball Rally_, was a favorite. I would love to have the Ferrari 365 GTB/4 Daytona Spider that was driven by Raul Julia. From Sotheby’s: > [@](#): > > Out of the 1,406 Daytonas produced between 1968 and 1973, only 121 were spiders. The actual car from the movie, chassis # 14829, recently sold at auction for a cool $1.65M. I’ll take it. ---

> [@Telemark](#): > > A tribble I have one. Not an actual prop from the _Star Trek_ set, but I bought a package containing VHS copies of _The Trouble With Tribbles_, the DS9 episode _Trials and Tribble-ations_, and a replica tribble. I’d like Hugh O’Brian’s Buntline Special from _The Life and Legend Wyatt Earp_. And yes, I know the Buntline Special is part of the legend. It’s doubtful that Earp ever carried such a weapon. ---

> [@Bullitt](#): > > Didn’t Mark Donohue die in a crash driving one? He died driving a March Formula 1 car after championing Porsche’s Can Am effort in the 917. He had already retired from racing once due to the danger but he went back into it because he needed the money. ETA: Which apparently people already noted. ---
