Mad Max's GT

Post by Kreegle »

<strong>[ -> N/A]</strong>

This doesn't appear to all that new, but hell, it's interesting anyway. MaddMaxx sent along a couple of links to some Mad Max car pages - a story in the <a href="http://www.portlandtribune.com/archview.cgi?id=12606" target="_blank">Portland Tribune</a>, and a page on <a href="http://www.aussiecoupes.com/max.html" target="_blank">Aussie Coupes.com</a> that actually has a look at how to MAKE your own "Interceptor". Sample:<blockquote><em>Many of the vehicles used in the filming of the Mad Max movies were uniquely Australian, which makes sense as the movies were made in Australia on a very limited budget. These cars included the director's own personal vehicle!

<br><center><img src="http://www.aussiecoupes.com/images/inte ... er><br>The famous Interceptor (above) was created using a 1973 Ford XB GT Hardtop or XB GT Coupe as the base vehicle. For the first movie (the most popular version for Interceptor Replicas), a wing was added to the roof and trunk lid. Wheel arch flares were grafted on and complete new nose cone was put in place. These were the major changes to the bodywork of the car. </em></blockquote>Oooh, exciting. Cheers MaddMaxx!

Even if guys who drive Fords go for old men over sexy blondes (as evidenced by their australian ads) the V8 Interceptor is fucking cool.

Only a real artist knows the actual anatomy of the terrible, or the physiology of fear - the exact sort of lines and proportions that connect up with latent instincts or heriditary memories of fright, and the proper colour contrasts and lighting effects to stir the dormant sense of strangeness.
