That car has:

# Bumperettes
# Wrong Steering Wheel
# No Hood Pins
# 1 Racing Mirror
# Dunlops (Not BFGs)
# Correct 70 Centercaps
# What looks Like "SIXPAK" Call Outs

Looks like the same colour though. Hopefully they use it. 

Hey Buddy,
I knew there are differences. I said that just checking for your DB count level! :smilielol:

The car at the end of FF3 was a Satellite/RR/GTX custom built for Vin Diesel, I believe.  Looked pretty sick.   :ylsuper:

If I'm not mistaken, that '70 Road Runner is called "The Hammer" and was built by Pure Vision, I believe by Steve Strope.  I think it has a 400 with a ProCharger system on it.

That company also made the '72 "Challenger X" along with some other fancy cars.  I think there is a '71 or '72 red GTX with white rims that has al sorts of handling mods to it that was made by them too, I think it's on a Year One ad.

1972 Dodge Challenger Rallye 340, AT, Code TB3=Super Blue, SBD=8/17/1971.  Yes, a Rallye without the fender louvers from the factory because of the body side molding option.

I think it was either Hot Rod Magazine, or Popular Hot Rodding, that had an article about that.
The Nissan Skyline (Not Supra) engine was installed in a Mustang, but for the real driving, they used a Mustang with real Ford V8.  :smokin:


Thanks for the correction, I always get those two cars mixed up.

It would have been nice to see how the Roadrunner did in FF3.

Actually, there is a Viper race in the beginning, too.  It couldnt outrun an old Buick though.   :roflsmiley:

I like when after the race in the police station Sean Boswell smiles at the girl and he's missing teeth!  :roflsmiley:  :smilielol:
