Film Cars - Page 5

	Mad Max This car was originally customised by a young man called Murray Smith. A film company executive spotted it on his driveway and thought it would make an ideal vehicle for a new film being produced: "Mad Max". The car was purchased and Murray was given a job on the film as mechanic. With further modifications the car was used in the original film and in its sequel.

On completion of the films the car was destined for scrap, having sustained some frontal damage, but was saved by scrap dealer Ray Evans. He later sold the car to Bob Fursenko who spent a vast sum restoring the car. Cars of the Stars purchased the cars and is proud to own the most famous Australian car, featuring in the most famous Australian film, driven by the most famous Australian actor Mel Gibson.
