When I was a kid back in the late 60's or early 70's I remember a movie set in africa in ww2. a spitfire well I beleive it was a spitfire crash landed it couldnt take off again but it could manuver on the ground an was chased around the desert by a german tank. Would anyone remember this movie? And if so what is the name of it? Cheers Kevin

Kevin,

Remember the movie, but can not remember the name or the AFV.

I think I know the movie you're talking about. I remember a film with Lloyd Bridges as a German tank commander chasing a damaged P-40 that could only taxi around the desert because of some damage. It used to show up on the local stations' afternoon movie before syndicated programming took over.
Aha! I found it on IMDB. The movie I'm thinking of is called "Death Race" (not to be confused with Death Race 2000, which is a completely different beast). According to the site, it's a 1973 made for TV movie.
I hope I'm on the right track here.

Ed, I am sure that is the one, I wonder if its on vhs or even dvd with the way they have been putting old movies out these days. Cheers Kevin
