Seems like its a lot easier to drive from the inside than I would have guessed. The thing looks like it would be an absolute nightmare.

Then again, I don't think I ever saw him try and back it up ... lol

Most movie cars have a 350 Chevy under the hood, regardless of what make the car actually is. Its usually the cheapest way to get a dozen 300+ hp engines on set. It also makes it a lot easier to be an on-set mechanic if you only have to know the workings of a small block.

They also tend to have Ford 9 inch rear axles. Not sure what they use for transmissions, might be GM 4 speed autos. Don't quote me on that one though.
