You can add The California Kid to the list.It's got an early 30s 3 window Ford coupe.They made an editing goof.In one scene the Chevy motor briefly changes to a Ford motor.
Also there is Badlands.There's something mesmerizing about a black '60
Caddy sedan barreling through the unpaved plains at night.Not a road flick but,hey.
An honorable mention is The Car from '77.A badassed driverless sinisterly customized Lincoln Mark III terrorizes a western town.
Goofy yes,but I like it anyway.

looks like a real hoot!! I like desert settings too. It seems vaguely familiar but I could be confusing it with Christine. Thanks.

  Oh man,you'll love The Car.The apparently supernaturally driven Lincoln has not a regular horn,it has an AIR horn,like trucks have.
  After each hit and run over it blasts the air horn triumphantly!
  Dual exhausts,open pipes of course.Matte black paint job,lowered roof & the front end is suggestive of a face.I'd say more but no spoilers from
  here on in.....get The Car.
