The last of the V8 Interceptors — black, blown, and the most recognisable car in post-apocalyptic cinema.

Handcrafted in iron with rolling metal wheels and hand-painted black finish, carrying the Interceptor's defining features: the front air dam, the rear spoiler, and the supercharger standing proud of the bonnet.

The car

Underneath, it is a 1973 Ford Falcon XB GT coupe — a model sold only in Australia, which is part of why it looked so alien to audiences everywhere else. The production team bolted on a fibreglass nose, a rear wing and a supercharger that, in the first film, was not actually connected to anything: the on-off switch was pure theatre.

The surviving screen car was nearly scrapped after filming, bought by a fan for a small sum, and is now in the Dezer Collection in Miami.
