…that’s it? I would have thought that a Hollywood collectible would have gone for a bit more.
It is near impossible to hear Queen’s legendary ballad Bohemian Rhapsody without thinking of one of rock’s most iconic film moments. Yes, it’s the soulful, headbanging scene from 1992’s Wayne’s World, which proved so popular that the song shot up the charts 17 years after its release. The scene also featured a custom 1976 AMC Pacer owned by Garth Algar, who was played by Dana Carvey. And now the little hatchback has hit the auction block and sold. On Saturday, the car sold for a surprising $37,400 to an onsite buyer. Schwing!
