Continuity: Near the end of the film when Spider Mike is rescued from a town. The Rubber Duck's truck is damaged. It looses the bullbars on the front, and the windbreaker on the roof is flattened against the roof of the cab. Yet after leaving the town, in a series of shots showing the Rubber Duck's truck. The damage disappears or varies. The windbreaker appears fixed and so do the bars, yet in the next shot just the windbreaker is fixed and the bars aren't. It continues like this through a montage and then in the next scene when it cuts back to a close up of the truck both are damaged again.

Convoy (1978) - 5 mistakes
Directed by Sam Peckinpah, starring Ali MacGraw, Burt Young, Ernest Borgnine, Kris Kristofferson (add more)
Continuity: At the end of the film when Rubber Duck's truck is being shot to pieces, the gunmen take out his remaining headlamp (he lost the first running through the road block) twice.
Visible crew/equipment: When the truck is getting shot on the bridge, you see Rubber Duck get down on the floor of his cab and this is shown in many following shots. Just before the truck falls off the bridge, there is a short shot from inside the cab looking out. Somebody is sitting in the driver's seat, steering.
Continuity: When Pig Pen crashes his truck into the jail to get Spider Mike, the windshield of his truck is cracked (shot of Ali in the back shows the crack), but when they are heading to Mexico, his windshield is no longer cracked (when the food is thrown at his truck after the ice cream truck wreck.).
Other: When the federal agent calls the Rubber Duck over the CB by his real name, Sheriff Wallace acts like he never heard it before. They had contact many times before this and he must have seen the Rubber Duck's drivers license and real name.
