1969 xXx Movie Car
icky sidescoops
nice tailight thing tho... kinda interesting.
overall its an "aight" car (minues those FUGLY scoops!!!)
definately not worth what their asking, even if it WAS in a movie

With all the resto-mod possibilities out there and as a huge 1969 supporter that I am ... I would not be caught dead in this thing.
Especially since it had hollywood backing ( if that is REALLY that car from the movie ) ... they could of done so much better. The Chin is ugly, the rear is awful. The paint is okay; its clean, the rims are okay; 18s" maybe a little too radical ... cant tell at this point; I would have to drive it and see how it turns and handles.
There are no console interior shots; did they upgrade the front dash with a JME console? The engine has a little bit of a dressing but clearing not show quailty.
It looks like a regualr 69 fastback with Mach 1 add ons ( as claimed ) .. I have not checked the VIN to prove that fact or not ( and I probibly wont ).
It seems to be in the structure condition as mine; decent running. I would say its real value should be around 20K; i would give it a lot more if the front and rear were left original.

I like it except the lower sidescoops SUCK! and the front end has a real wavyness to the top of it, not form fit, but the front doesnt really bother me, i like the smoothness of it. Still its much better than wasting all those good 67-68s and building queer GT500E's
look at those pictures!!!! Other than the paint being shiney, that car is a piece of crap. The interor is nasty and dirty, and under the hood is way, way not clean. look up toward the cowl...is that rust?? You woul think they would have spent a little more time on it and make it a complete car if they were planning on selling it....the way I see it, that may be the lowest selling price for a movie car in history...because its crap.... You know, if TMS offered a smilie that was taking a dump I would use it right now.

The "F" in the VIN shows it is nothing more than a 302 powered sportsroof. For someone who is supposed to be "the next living legend in auto builders", the guy has A LOT to learn about painting a car! I love how they just sprayed over the door data plate...yeah, real attention to detail there 
The mirrors are awful, sidescoops hideous and taillight treatment looks like somthing out of the mid 70's. In fact the taillight panel modification was SO poorly thought out and executed that if you notice inside the trunk they had to use a gas cap INSIDE the trunk...because you can't open the one on the outside! I won't even comment on that "thing" they call a front air dam.
and I LOVE how he calls the wheels "Torch thrusters" and then even corrects himself to say "Torgue thrusters".....Hey moron! they are called "T-O-R-Q-U-E T-H-R-U-S-T" wheels....Not "torch" and not "Thrusters".
IMO it's worth maybe what the wheels are worth...simply because anyone who buys it must completely rebuild the car from the ground up just so that it is presentable!
