Yeah, there is a short scene with a close up of a 73 Grand Safari wagon (non-woodgrain) and before this scene starts it shows that car (with the guy in the trunk "Ken Kercheval") is a 73 Catalina 4dr hardtop... it shows it going through the car wash scene and if you look close, you can see its a high optioned model... even looks to have the auto climate control A/C! They do race it out of the car wash lot and into the parking garage, but they dont really trash it except when the shoot the trunk lock.

That Grand Ville in this movie was a very high optioned car as well... even had the "sway bars" you will notice on some of the shots of the back.

Oh speaking of the French Connection, I have never seen it, but on the automotive IMDB it shows a pic from that movie and it looks like the same Grand Ville in a chase scene... I wonder if those were same shots from that movie?

I could have used that weather stripping and some of that bright trim off of that Grand Ville for my car.. lol.
