Robert Wagner; the gold thief!

Sun Sep 12, 2004 8:25 pm

Just been sitting here watching old movies on the TCM channel, and got around to thinking about some of the movies I've seen over the years. One which I just remembered was a Robert Wagner film where he was involved in stealing gold together with a girl and an (Italian?) count. They were double-dealing each other like crazy, and in the end they left with the loot in a B-17 they had bought second-hand. Anyone out there who remembers this movie?

The movie was called "The Biggest Bundle of Them All" and also starred Raquel Welch. The B-17 was one of the French IGN birds; anyone know which one?

You mean F-BEEA, right? BTW, was anything salvaged from that bird? I saw a photo that seemed to show an intact tail... and there's a group of "Labrador retrievers" who could use one...
