I'm surprised to see that there are mirrors, there were none in 1966,
It's not serious

 

[Kevin L]

Super cool... how many cars did they buy? Did they go through your Rick?

 

[Rick Muck- Mark IV]

leased, not via me sadly.

 

[Ron Scarboro]

Yeah, why the mirrors?

 

[Kevin L]

leased, not via me sadly.

Hmmm...wonder if they have to reattach the rear/front of the cars upon lease return

They will be put back to normal and sold as "famous movie cars".

 

[Kevin L]

They will be put back to normal and sold as "famous movie cars".

So price will be an additional 20%... perfect!

Hi - I was the vehicle art director for all the cars. Yes we were very aware of most offending details, however the lead stunt driver requested these side mirrors for safety reasons. It was a judgement call, and the best we could do after was match the body color. Cheers, Rob

 

[Rob Johnson]

Yeah, why the mirrors?

The side mirrors were a safety request by the lead stunt driver. We were aware that they would not have been there. Internal tears were shed but safety first.

Details, details...I will see it at the theatre, large popcorn in hand and surely enjoy it as much as Vanishing Point, Crazy Larry/Dirty Mary when I was a kid!!! It's a car movie dudes!!! And a whole lotta folks will find out what Shelby and GT40 means...good for the hobby.

 

[Fran Hall RCR]

The cars are actually RCR40s that were sectioned and lengthened .
We RCR built 28 pieces for the movie in total...not all RCR40s btw , multiple marques.

 

[Rick Muck- Mark IV]

Fran is correct, the GTs are RCR. I was given incorrect information and had no intent to take credit away from Fran.

 

[Fran Hall RCR]

Thanks Rick..no offense taken.

spf supplied the Cobras but we did supply all variations of the 40s

 

[Bill Kearley]

Dave, I hope there is no comparison, I hope for accurate, interesting, entertaining movie with out to much Hollywood drama.
I plan on going to Vancouver to watch it with my son.

 

[dave]

hope I don't have to go all the way to Vancouver to see it lol

 

[Randy V]
