I have the British version on DVD, it has the directors comments, great history!

Maurice Unger of Cupid Productions also bought a 1970 Challenger T/A new off the lot well before the movie debut.

May Barry Newman Race In Peace. drive




The Challenger T/A was the car Maurice showed to Richard Sefarian and asked him what he thought about using the car in the movie. He said what do you think about using this car as the star vehicle in the movie, I can get lots of them. Who could possibly forget the naked girl on the bike! Chrysler Executives were appalled by all the drug use and nudity in the film and completely disassociated themselves from the film after seeing the first private screening of the film. The cars from the film were rumored to have gone to the proving grounds and were most likely destroyed after being analyzed. None have surfaced to this day. A proving grounds employee said that he remembered seeing a trailer load of beat up white 70 Challengers there.
