I am seeking a movie I believe is from the 80’s but could also perhaps be from the 70’s. I only remember pieces from it. The main theme is some sort of treasure hunt in a desert looking area, perhaps Mexico. The main character drives around in a truck shaped like a bee. I think it is a sewer truck. There also is an elderly couple who have an old plane. I think the villian is mexican looking with a moustache and a captains hat. In the end the treasure is at the buttom of a well, but too far inside the walls that the main character can reach with hands. He is by the way forced down the well by the villian. He therefore uses the hoses on his truck to suck the gold coins up. I would love is anyone could help me with this, since I can’t find it

I remember seeing a movie with similar description, I was like 6 years old I barely remember much about it except that among those guys you described there was a policeman and a guy with a hat (I think he was wearing a red shirt?)
I was searching for this movie for ages but can't find anyhthing about it. :'(
So have you found it at last?

Just remembered that there was indeed another treasure hunt film called Flush (1977).
I saw it back in the mid-80s and only remember the bee truck I need to get the Finnish VHS tape and check it out again.
