HELP - What is this?

[Indian Man]

An older man who lives close to me , does not use the internet or have a computer , has asked me to help him identify a bicycle he owns. He's in his 70's and said he bought this bike in an auction in N.C. some 25-30 years ago. To me it looks OCC ? But I don't know . He also said it was a prop bike for a movie and only 5 were built ? I don't think the man is lying , so I'm asking for some educated HELP from the bike world . Have any idea of what movie it was in ? Any literature on the bike , brochure, ad etc. What value ? Who made it ? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks !

Looks newer than being 25-30 years old.

I think he's referring to it's design & year of manufacture. Not it's condition. I'm betting it's a 2000's bike. Maaaaybe late 90's.

Saw that also. No bike listed like this one . Maybe SUN made 5 bikes for the movie he's talking about. Maybe I will send SUN a photo if possible . Thanks

Correct Mike, I should have explained better. I agree with you.
