Spike Posted March 31, 2015 Report Share Posted March 31, 2015 Just read a story that the latest Furious movie destroyed most of the cars they bought for production including 9 1968-70 dodger Chargers . I know it's a drop in the bucket compared to how many were destroyed making the Dukes of Hazzard series but still sad to see 9 more go to the scrapyard. I'll be glad when this movie franchise is finally dead! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roth Potter Posted March 31, 2015 Report Share Posted March 31, 2015 I've seen all the movies since the first and love this franchise, but why destroy the cars? I understand if its for a scene in the movie, but 9 Chargers for a scene? I don't think it was for one.There is only one positive about this, which is that they are mostly 70s Chargers instead of 68/69 (my opinion might not be yours). Any destroyed Charger is bad but it could have be worse I guess. Lucas_Duke95 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hollywood isn't in the car restoring business so whatever cars get wrecked during filming 9 times out of 10 get sent to the scrapyard unless someone involved with the movie or tv show wants to buy and fix up the wrecks.

Roth Potter Posted March 31, 2015 Report Share Posted March 31, 2015 Oh, like that.I thought you meant they send working Chargers to the scrapyard or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hobie Hartkins Posted April 1, 2015 Report Share Posted April 1, 2015 If worse came to absolute worse....they could pay Dodge to make new '69 Chargers!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
