Name the movie.

Nobody... no guesses ?

it's not a hard one, if you know older car flicks, oldie but goodie
I had a hunch but clicking on the picture confirmed it.
Thunder Road, 1958.
How about the cheesy 1986 movie with the black Charger?
The Gladiator.
The title character had a brother that was killed by the guy in the Charger....the man only known as Skull was just some demented jerkoff that terrorized other motorists.

The only movie I’ve seen that kid in (Robert Mitchum’s brother?) is Thunder Road but I don’t remember that scene.

Edit; just saw Kern beat me to it.

That's Robert Mitchum's Son, R.M. Jr.

yes Thunder Road

The Mob, organized crime in Memphis IIRC, was the theme/plot
The syndicate that was taking over the Moonshiners Bootlegging operations
deliveries & $$$...
(that guy in the back seat oppisite of RM jr., who played Nick Barkley
(his real name eludes me) in the TV series Big Valley/western, was one of the
Mountain Men/Moonshiners turned Mobsters
)
They/Mob guys were trying to recruit RM's 'movie younger brother',
one of the main characters, of the Moonshiners to be a driver for the syndicate/Memphis Mob,
in the movie, he is actually his/Robert Mitchum's real-life son...

I was a big fan of 49-51 Ford at one point
(I had racecars using them bodies, Pro-gas BBC & Hemi powerd)
It was a movie that reminded me a lot of them years

Valence is one of the 5.

"THE MAN WHO SHOT LIBERTY VALANCE (1962) he has died and the film's story is told in flashback by James Stewart who has come to his funeral."
Grey area here as Wayne
did appear in the film.
The one not on your list....
The Alamo.

Some will argue about his character dies in The Sea Chase

There are also a couple of B movies from the early - mid 30's about a couple of his characters being killed off.
