A gem of a 50s B movie was Hell Drivers - featuring not only Connery but Stanley Baker, Herbert Lom and another favourite of mine, Patrick McGoohan. Plus those lorries, filmed as if they were being driven at close to the speed of sound.
I haven't seen it for a while, but it used to be a staple of the BBC's early afternoon TV listings. If you were on holiday, or off sick, at home, then at some point whilst changing TV channels you would encounter Hell Drivers.

A lot of my favorites have already been mentioned but the one I don't believe was mentioned was one of the 2 non-Bond movies he made in 1964 which was Woman of Straw where he played essentially a sophisticated baddie.
