Mopar movie cars
 
does any one else cringe when they see a mopar in a movie get smashed or wrecked beyond repair :( like the challenger in the F an F or the new dukes of hazard movie. dont get my wrong good films but sucks that some wont make it.

Things are not always what they appear to be. In vanashing point at the end,it was a camaro they crashed into the bulldozers. In bullitt,if you look real good you will see the charger driving past the gas station expolison.But they still do damage a lot of beautiful mopars,makes you almost cry!:mad:

I think it should be illegal to ruin a great classic car in the name of movie production.

Mr.Duster Feb 2, 2010 01:30 PM

ya same here they have all this equipment cant they just animate the crash? they are getting harder and harder to find.

yep use a fiber glass shell on a Chevy chassis for the crash scenes :D .

Dead is right, nothing beats a real explosion, but if they have to do it they should use fakes not the real deal

What about the 69 Charger that gets demolished at the end of Dirty Mary, Crazy Larry? What a waste!!!

mopardrt Feb 6, 2010 09:22 PM

Dont forgett the fact that most of those cars start off as really bad junkers then are fixed up to look better for the movies.

Not a movie car, but a cool TV car. The 73 Dodge Charger Ralley edition on Burn Notice. That cars seems to be regularly abused.
