A sad sight

[Dixiedog]

Lots of movies are made here in Georgia. We were driving by a vehicle supplier for the movies today and I saw this.

Don’t know what movie or show it was used in, a guy I work with said a HBO show Outlander had a 62 blow up in it.

Hollywood wankers.

Man, that is sad to see. anyone know how I can get a hold of that rear passenger side mudflap though

 

[D21FJ60]

[Cincodemustache]

Tons of usable parts!

The outsiders..

Look at the tank filler bullet holes, obviously it exploded

 

[Dixiedog]

The rear view mirrors and the grab rail is what I wanted....

 

[dad4x4]

That sux. Would definitely be good to scavenge for good parts.

is this off Industrial way? I grew up right down the street

 

[FJACS]

Interesting how they blew it up. The passenger door and wheels/tires were removed I guess?

 

[mattressking]

Yea my guess is the Outsider on HBO, color is right.

 

[Gretsch]

Bet it still starts.

It will buff out. There is a can of yoohoo in the center console.

So.. this is what I do for work, probably was a junk truck by Georgia standards, or not mud standards which may be pretty low. Most likely had a junk motor, definitely didn’t have it when lit up, dash, seats headliner carpet, motor trans tank pulled. The dents were filled and it was shot to match the good truck they drive though the season. Most likely the car was chosen early on and when the last episode was written the truck exploding was added in then. I would have never volunteered a nice truck up for a character knowing it was to ultimately be destroyed. But in the end it’s my job and if I have to, then I have to. But I do retain a certain amount of control over it.

I have destroyed good cars, it’s my job, but I try my hardest to dissuade using something of collector status. Last year I did a show with a very nice 79 F150.. ep 9 they wanted to total it.. I inflated the costs in my budget. Got them to change their mind.. it’s now in my driveway.

I was trying to figure out where a Landcruiser would hit on the set of Outlander!

If it were up to me I'd work one in. It would make it more bearable to watch. Maybe deep background.

Yes, it is on Industrial Way. The large yard across the street with with the cars/trucks in it are the owners of it. I say Dad4x4 needs to go talk to them and buy the old girl.

 

[Dixiedog]

Front view, van and car next to it are gone now.

Very sad to see any Land Cruiser suffer this fate.
That being said, we got to watch the first 2 episodes of The Outsider in a movie theater and it was better than most movies being released these days. Jason Bateman has found his footing as a director and I wish him much success in his future.
