"Three women start a lunch wagon business but run into stiff resistance from their competitor Mr. Schmeckler:
their presence is interfering with some sort of illegal activity he's involved in.
While Schmeckler busies himself trying to sabotage their wagon, the women are busy falling in love
with construction guys and rock musicians.
Two bumbling diamond thieves create complications for both sides." (IMDb)

Oh yeah, what a fantastic feelgood sex comedy!

There´s also a band called Teddy and the Ruff Riders
which is of course Missing Persons (the band was called U.S. Drags when the film was released).
They perform two classic tunes Mental Hopscotch amd I Like Boys.

Missing Persons in Lunch Wagon - awesome montage!

You can also hear other cool tunes on the soundtrack.

Mickey mouse phone, Evel Knievel pinball, lots of T&A and magical early 80s feel!
Highly Recommended!

Lunch Wagon was called Playboy Girls here in Finland

Just found out that Candy Moore posed for The Cars' 1979 album cover, Candy-O.
Completely hand-drawn by Alberto Vargas.

I was a huge Missing Persons (and T&A movie) fan back then so I had to see this. Once again I snuck into it as I was only 15 in 1981 and they wouldn't sell me a ticket. This movie did not disappoint! LOL
