Stingray (1978)

Hapless hoodlums desperately try to get their loot back which has been hidden in a hot (in more ways than one) car...

Drug dealers Tony (Bert Hinchman) and Lonigan (William Watson) kill two cops who try to frame them and hide a stash of cash and drugs in a Stingray that is on sale on a used car lot (well why not?) 

After they link up with their violent boss Abigail (Sherry Jackson) - who is also dressed as a nun - they discover the car has been sold to Elmo (Les Lannom) and Al (Christopher Mitchum). Soon, a mad chase is going on as both the police and the criminals are after them...

This is an enjoyable watch, its a bit of a romp with plenty of car chases, violence and comedic nonsense. Fast moving, especially in the Stingray, and quite ridiculous but a lot of fun.
