Movie suggestion request.

I’m starting up thinking about the next book in the Tom Vargas series, now that I’ve written myself out of the corner that was keeping me from making it a series. I need recommendations for 1950s black and white drag racing / street racing flicks. You know, the ones involving surly teens and stuff. I also need advice on what kinds of 1960s beach movies I should be watching besides BEACH BLANKET BINGO.

Yes, these seem a bit contradictory. There may be two novels involved. We’ll see.
