So, if there was a dent on one, that same dent had to be on all 3. When the cars were done, car "make-up artists" came in and basically un-did everything I and the other guys did. These guys made these cars look like 3 identical old used up cars with rust, more dents, even cracked windshields.

Pretty cool watching them work but sucked because those cars looked pretty damn good before the make-up artists got to them.

On a side note.... James Cann was driving the Galaxie and rammed it into the Vette in the movie.

1:02:16 is where he rams into the Vette. That was painful to watch!

LOL! I forgot he rammed it twice. That Vette was a real POS. It got flatbedded in and back then flatbedding was a rare sight. We had to get it running, brakes as well as body & paint.
