I need help finding the title to a movie.. I think it was in the early to mid 80's. It was about a guy who had a race car hidden in the floor of his garage. He used to be a race car driver at some point. As I remember something happened to where there was no gas and people didn't drive anymore. Towards the end I remember he got the car out of the garage and drove it and don't remember much else. Please help!!

The Last Chase (1981) (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0082642/)

Not sure if this is the one you're looking for or not but it sounds a little like "The Green Hornet". He kept his car hidden under his garage floor, suspended upside down with steel clamps. When he pushed a button, the floor would flip, positioning the car right side up and ready to go.

I stand corrected... I'm betting that Quinn F's answer is the right one.
