BIG TROUBLE IN LITTLE CHINA
Posted by Billy Tackett on
THE CAR
In John Carpenter’s film Big Trouble In Little China, Kurt Russel’s character Jack Burton is a truck driver who agrees to help his friend save a young lady from the clutches of a gang in San Francisco’s Chinatown.
Jack arrives in Chinatown driving his 1985 Freightliner FLC 120 which has been christened The Pork Chop Express. The actual truck was most recently owned by a body shop in Maine and was in use regularly. A recent news headline claims that the truck is leaving Maine and headed to England but the article is behind a paywall and I couldn’t come up with any more information.
