I'm not sure why there's a sports car in the game's tileset

I have a suspicion -- it's from one of Mark Hamill's more-regrettable roles. What a great Easter Egg! (unless it's actually part of the game somewhere)

Holy crap, that's absolutely the same car. I'll update the writeup with your discovery. Thanks!

I guess the two tiles are really unused, aren't they? If they are, that's great stuff for the The Cutting Room Floor wiki (http://tcrf.net)! Don't get lost on there as it's somewhat like TV Tropes.

In your page update, Mark's family name should read Hamill.

The 70's was a strange time for custom cars. This movie preserves the custom car culture of the era fairly well.
