Does anybody know if he actually rebuilt the car?

I was reading the other day that Eric Bana's XB is at Dick Johnson Racing Team in Queensland where they are trying to straighten out the chassis.
I'll have a look on the Ford Forums over here and will post a link if i find anything.

read this thread about the movie last night so i had to watch it. I just finished it. What a cool story. such a shame about the wreck, though. Clarkson was definitely hilarious. Could have probably done without Dr. Phil though...

that's the part I thought was funny- Like- "What are you new messing around with a big old car like that?" I wonder what Clarkson would think about the Lat-G crowd??

I was thinking the same thing, yeah these cars were born with 40 year old technology, but he should take a look at some of the aftermarket companies out there that are kicking it right now..

One of my favorite movies in the "Car" collection. It really does capture the essence of how cars like ours are more than just a "car". I sure felt his pain when he wadded it up---very stoked to see that he is finally getting it straightened out---probably had to do two more movies in order to pay for it based on the amount of work done in those pics. Thanks for the pics by the way--that is great that you shared those. Keep us posted if any others show up.
