The movie follows the Griswold family as they embark on a road trip across the country, starting in the suburbs of Chicago and ending at a Southern California amusement park. Along the way, the family goes through one mishap after the other, while visiting kooky family members along the way.

Chase and Beverly D'Angelo starred as Clark and Ellen Griswold in the classic family series which began with an innocent, cross-country drive to Walley World theme park.

The Sports Illustrated Swimsuit pinup made her acting debut in the comedy classic long after she made her mark as a model in the 1970s. Brinkley played a blonde bombshell driving a red Ferrari who kept running into Clark Griswold (Chase) during a family road trip.

Last year, "National Lampoon's Vacation" celebrated its 40th anniversary.
