John Travolta’s character drove this 1964 cherry red Chevelle Malibu in the
movie, "Pulp Fiction" (1994).


VICTORVILLE, Calif. (AP) — Authorities say the classic Chevrolet convertible
featured in the film "Pulp Fiction" has been found nearly two decades after it
was stolen.

The San Bernardino County Sun reports movie director Quentin Tarantino’s
1964 Chevelle Malibu was recovered in the San Francisco Bay area earlier  
this week. John Travolta’s character drove the cherry red car in the movie.

Sheriff’s Sgt. Albert Anolin said an investigation into an old Malibu in the desert
city of Victorville on April 18 led detectives to another Malibu in the Oakland area. It
was then confirmed that vehicle belonged to Tarantino and was reported stolen in
1994.

Authorities say the car’s current owner is not believed to be involved in its theft
and is considered to be a victim of a fraud.

A message seeking Tarantino’s comment was not immediately returned.

In 1948 the Ford Motor Co. presented baseball great Babe Ruth with a new Lincoln Continental two-door hardtop coupe to show their appreciation for his tireless devotion 
to Little Leaguers and the sport of baseball. It is believed to be the last car Ruth ever 
drove before he died of cancer in August of that year. 

Lonnie Shelton, a big Ruth and baseball fan from Pampa, Texas, recently acquired 
the car for an undisclosed amount. The “Yankee” blue colored car had been parked
the past 35 years in a couple of museums in Minnesota and Texas. The new owner
said it has 81,000 original miles on it.
