I would like to have alloy wheels, though, if only not to lose the wheel covers like Bill Hickman (the actor/stunt driver who drove the car in the scene) did many times.Some trivia about that scene: 1) The collision that caused the damage to the Charger's left front corner occurred when Bill Hickman collided with a parked car that held the camera. That collision was not in the script but they kept the footage of the collision in the movie. 2) The producers of the movie had obtained permission from the city of San Francisco to conduct the chase scene on public roads at speeds up to 70 miles per hour. However, at some points during the scene, the Charger and Steve McQueen's Mustang GT 390 exceeded 110 miles per hour and outran the camera car following them. That scene is awesome but the rest of the movie is very very good too. |
