"sell house, piss off the wife. This ain't no ferrari, this is way better." I LOVE THAT! Haha, awesome. And so accurate.
Yeah Lane is got the truth there! Thanks for watching.
As an Australian, it is also my dream to even be standing near an XB Interceptor
If you are ever in the4 Seattle / Tacoma Metropolitan area of the USA stop by! We will gladly help make that dream come true!
How much!@@MadMaxCars
@@audiemuniz6445 For a full build it can vary quite a bit depending on what the client decides about Engine, Trans, Rear, Suspension and the like. However there is a ready turnkey can in our classified ads at www.madmaxcars.com right now for less that it would take to build the same car.
@@MadMaxCars thanks ,you guys doing very good job try to putting pices from here and pices from there!
@@audiemuniz6445 It is the Last of the V8 Interceptors, be a shame to do any less..... or 'ya know, blow it up.
Awesome job fellas! I still remember be a little kid when I first saw this in reveal in the movie. When the blower kicked on my mouth dropped open!
Im 50 and remember it like yesterday!
If I had one of these and bug from fury road my life would be complete!
Thank you for sharing your cool memory! I think everyone here has a similar tale from youth of seeing the films the first time and how it changed our lives. If you ever decide it is time to make that dream come true, contact us at www.madmaxcars.com and we would be glad to help you "Drive off the silver screen and into YOUR garage"!
So sweet that the supercharger actually works and isn't for show.
;-)
10 minutes of my life very well spent! I love that car. I sat and started up the original when my friends owned it at their museum in Keswick UK. Would love to own one but the cost is way out lol but its a joy to watch you guys make these gems cheers 🍻 Davey
Thank you very much! Sounds like you sure got a treat by knowing Peter Nelson and getting to hang out at the museum. That sounds like some cool times!
:-)
@@MadMaxCars yea it was a great little museum but had amazing vehicles from movies and Television... We were friends with the whole family for years until they sold the collection and moved to Miami.
That Interceptor was my fav car from childhood... sitting in it and actually starting it was a dream come true. Cheers guys best wishes 👍
@@ForgottenHorrorchannel Awesome. Glad you got to have that amazing experience! Cheers!
Thank you for the memory! Many years ago flew from Phoenix to visit my elderly Aunt in Southport. Two targeted day trips included the museum to see the Interceptor and Coniston Water/Donald Campbell's infamy. Was an incredibly special day out going to Keswick and such a special and iconic little museum!
As a teenager a few of my mates had the original versions of these cars here in Australia. Used to love cruising around in them, the cars in front would move out of the way for you.
I bet! Thank you for the comment and sharing the story! I bet you guys had a blast!!
I love the tone of regret in the voices of those who re-created this fantastic vehicle. Evidently and not surprisingly, they would prefer not to let her go.
LOL! Very perceptive! Yes the delivery of the car to the client is always a bittersweet moment. After all the hard work and time spent with an amazing car build, you get to be kinda attached and we love these cars. However, as much of a heartache as that is, the smile and wonder on the clients face when you hand over the keys and make that (often lifelong) dream come true makes up for everything 100 fold. That's why we do what we do. To make dreams come true!!
Well done fellas. It’s a Credit to your Trade in making these Iconic Aussie muscle cars look so menacing on the road👍🍺🇦🇺
Thank you for the kudos! We truly appreciate it!!!
One thing missing - Dinki-Di dog food. But, seriously You guys are outstanding!
LOL, well when we build a Mad Max 2 / Roadwarior version we do generally include the props one might expect to see with it. Thank you for watching and for the kind words. Very much appreciated!
The ducks guts
Absolutely! Shut the gate on that one!
:-)
Hallo,from germany, this Car is incredible. The Sound freezes my hairs. Well done.
Greetings from Seattle!! Thank you so much for watching and for the kind words!
One of my dreams ever since I watched the Mad Max franchise a couple years back, I was wondering how you guys built up these Interceptors from the ground up. Even modifying it seems to be a daunting task.
It is always cool to welcome a fellow Mad Max fan to our channel. There is a lot of cool build series on this channel that show the process of building a Interceptor. I hope they show you what you are hoping to see. Let us know once you find them, what you think. Thank you for watching!
UUUG...Off too another lucky guy!!!!!
Have to admit, our clients do tend to feel lucky. This is often a lifelong dream come true for these folks....
:-)
That is a thing of beauty. Cry everytime it gets damaged in the movies
Us too!! Thats gotta be one of the most exciting, and gut wrenching things in cinema. Watching the amazing cars get damaged or wrecked, .
This is something else ! You guys are very talented you did an extraordinary job, This is my dream car Keep it up 👍
Thank you so much Big Boss!!! When you are ready to make that dream come true, please feel free to get in touch with us. www.madmaxcars.com
Love the 'Factory' cracked dash!!.
LOL. The client decided it was so trivial and minor they did not want to invest in a new dash pad, and would live with it our use an over the counter vinyl repair kit to do themselves. I truly can understand, I might do the same if it were mine. Even if they leave it, it will add to the "Piece from here and a piece from there" feel..... or they spend $5 and an hour of their time instead of hundreds for a refurbished crash pad and install labor. Thanks for watching and for the comment!
If you hadn't notice, the blinker is always on the opposite side of the wheel from the hand you shift with. I've driven on both sides of the car for many years. It only takes a little concentration when you first do it. After that it's easy.
Its just one of those fun things when you drive both configurations regularly. Generally when you switch, once or twice and you catch it from then on.
Layne looks right at home in the car and would look the part in any Mad Max film
We will pass it on to him!! He will be stoked!
@@MadMaxCars I kept waiting for him to scream "I am the Night Rider!" :-D
@@aussiebloke609 OH YES! We will have to do that next time!!
Thanks man I was trying to hide the tears the whole drive
so awesome.. Would be cool to do a road warrior build and have it all beat up with the stripped interior and fuel tanks in the back. For me personally besides the mr. fusion dmc delorean from back to the future part 2, both The mad max version and the road warrior post apocalypse version are the coolest movie cars, EVER. What a lucky guy I would be driving that car every day lol.
Thank you!! Truly glad you appreciate it. We totally build whatever version the client wants, or custom combinations. We also build many other movie & TV replica cars. If you would like one, we are here to make that dream come true. Contact the team at www.madmaxcars.com and let us know what your ideal build would be!!
@@MadMaxCars dude awesome. Yea you guys killed it. Im jealous of the guy driving it lol. I'll have to let my old man know because hes the one who got me into the Mad Max movies and I want him to experience this car so bad.. and he's a Ford guy. How do you guys get the Ford Falcons into the United States do you import them from Australia?
@@eldiablo3794 It would be cool to help your Dad get that experience. We do indeed help our clients acquire Australian Flacons and other Aussie Muscle. We have been importing them since the late 1990s.
Wow!!!! What a car. I will have one some day. Y'all did a fantastic job, keep it up. 👍
Thank you so much for the kind words. We will keep it up. If you do find yourself;f wanting one of these cars, please feel free to contact us at www.madmaxcars.com
This IS the best replica of the Pursuit Special/Interceptor there is!! Right on Guys!!!
Thank you very much! We are honored to hear that!
What a work of art, beautiful, stunning, I must have one. Loved this car since I was 13, please let me win the lottery.....
You guys are amazing.
Hope to be calling you one day!
We would be glad to help! Call us when you are ready!
Nicely done boys. You are right......it is a life style.
Thanks brother!! That means a lot coming from you!
@@MadMaxCars I can very much respect your work. I see in your detailed videos how tedious it is to replace panels. People don't normally understand that and especially when you have to fabricate a panel you don't have because its too expensive to get it from down under or they don't make it.
@@croccustom Thank you so much for the kind words! Yes the metalwork is undoubtedly the most time consuming and meticulous parts to the build in many ways (not to say there are not others). We do generally find that if we order all the panels we need at once to save shipping costs, its almost always better to buy a quality panel from a labor cost standpoint. Still as you know, they simply do not make all the panels commonly needed to fix typical rust issues, not to mention atypical ones.
:-)
That car is Lane! He’s the Best.
He is super cool, and amazing at what he does. He is the best for sure!
I love it. Only my dream is the goose bike kz 1000.
We do those as well. Contact the team at www.madmaxcars.com to get a build started.
Really good footage, nicely done video! Love this stuff, do more!
Thanks man! Thats high praise coming from one of our all time favorite TH-camrs!!
:-)
damn that's a beautiful car.
Thank you!
Lemme win the lottery.... will definitely be ordering one 👍
When you hit that jackpot, we are here for you at www.madmaxcars.com
My two favorite cars are the Mad Max Interceptor and The Starsky and Hutch Striped Tomato Grand Torino
both Fords and both used as cop cars. I wouldn't say I'm a die hard Ford guy but those are my two favorites.
Great picks for your two favorite Star Cars!
Ausome mate job well you guys should be proud of you self . from Australia
Thank you very much for the kind words!
Does it have a free wireless charging option for your mobile phone? No, seriously this replica is perfect. Even the horns are accurate. This is my dream car and I would kill to own it.
Well I meant we could install something like that on request..... lol, funny but true. When you are ready for a replica of your own, we can help. www.madmaxcars.com
Love the ride, one of my favorite movie/ tv cars always wanted to build one,on a I think funny note, that kind of looked like night rider came back and stole the interceptor but more humble lol
Thank you very much! Yeah that was a fun video to shoot. If you are ever in the market for making that dream come true, please feel free to contact us at www.madmaxcars.com . A little secret..... We are getting close to listing a finished turnkey Interceptor in our classified ads, but are looking to pass the deal to the right person before we even list it.

@@MadMaxCars where your shop located what town
@@travisreddick7325 Seattle/Tacoma metropolitan area of Washington State.
@@MadMaxCars Thanks used to deliver frozen chicken up there, from Kentucky that would be a long exciting ride home
@@travisreddick7325 Wow! I bet!
Hmmm, I recognize that EXACT car. It's my profile photo from when I owned and finished it.
Sad side note, Larry Spain, the guy that built the tubes for those zoomie bodies WAY back in 2002 for forty bucks, passed away in December of 2019. Good to see his pipes are still sounding good.
Still can't believe that no one has replaced the door panels that were made by that drunken idiot who sewed the lines crooked.
Car looks fantastic, kind of wish I hadn't let the LTS siren go with it when I sold it.
It is indeed that car. Only with a 408 stroker now, and a bunch of new suspension and all that. We hint ever so briefly at the beginning of the video how much history this car has, but that truly deserves a separate video to go into detail. Sad to hear about Larry, but at least his zoomie pipes will live on. I guess nobody has made the door panels a priority. They are still in quite decent condition, the original sewing notwithstanding. Anybody else reading this, go to the torinoscj channel above for lots of cool videos and more Mad Max content!!
Looks awesome, you guys did that car perfect, brings back memories of my dads xb gt coupe
Thank you so much! Glad we could bring back some awesome Falcon Memories! We have a bunch of other cool vids on our channel, many with more stock builds if you want to check them out. Regardless, thanks for watching and for your comment!
Awesome ! 😎👍
Thank you!
Terrible ,elle est juste parfaite 👌le moteur , le compresseur ,le son à l échappement et même le bruit de la boîte a vitesse 🤩je dis 10/10 les gars pour votre job 👏👏👏
Merci beaucoup!
A mate of mine had an orange GS one of these with a batwing on the back. When he first got it, it had a 250 6cylinder in it but he ended up putting a 302 in. I got to drive it a few times and it was a nice car to drive...like an XB should!
Sounds like a cool car! Fun times I bet.
A little piece from here and a little piece from there 🤣
Great video mate and a great car.
Thanks for posting.

Yes Sir
You know it!!
Here in Ohio there was a black Falcon XB sitting in the bushes about 30 minutes from where I live. I tried to buy it several times but the guy said it was an 'original Mad Max car' and he was proud of it sitting in his yard. Fast forward a few years and I was at a local car show where there was a RHD XB painted blue and striped like the Mustang Mach 1 with an automatic in it. I asked the guy and he said a friend of his had it in his yard and he got it, painted it. toned down the looks, and put an automatic in it cause he didn't think he could do a 4 speed with his left hand! Turns out it was the same car but the new owner had basically ruined it. I have not seen it since so I have no idea what happened to it.
Very cool bit of personal Mad Max history. Thanks for sharing it. I can totally assure you it was definitely NOT a car from the movie. There was only one XB Coupe used for the Black Interceptor in the first film, which was reused in Mad Max 2, along with 1 stunt car which was rolled and blown up. The blown up stunt car is int he Mad Max 2 Museum in Broken Hill Australia,, while the one and only original is in the Dezer collection in Florida. Both car's history have been well known since filming wrapped and neither was ever sitting in a backyard in Ohio. So, it was just a cool XB Falcon and you can rest assured no screen used movie prop was ruined. Hopefully it got a loving restoration and is doing we'll these days. All the same thanks for sharing the cool story, and for watching!
@@MadMaxCars I knew it was not a true movie Mad Max car, I was just disappointed the new owner painted it blue and changed it to an automatic. Just thought i would share....
My very first 💪 car crush till this day and I'm a Chevy guy❤❤❤❤❤❤
Very cool!!!
@ 7:30 is my most replayed clip of the movie- when he is revving it and "goes into a coma man!"
That is one of the best parts!!
Stunning! Thanks guys.
Our pleasure! Glad you enjoyed it!!
Brutal, fantastic ! Greetings from Barcelona
Thanks! Greetings from Seattle!
:-)
Amazing! My dream car firts time when I saw in movie theatre.wonder for how much was builted?
If you are looking to have one built the guys at www.madmaxcars.com can help with details and costs. Also there is a very good deal on a finished turn key ready car in the classified ads there.
so disappointed you didn't have the siren and the single flashing blue light while driving. 😁
Ah, sorry about that. You can find quite a bit of that in other videos on our channel. This Reveal to the customer video has some great siren and light footage for example. th-cam.com/video/W8H6zvwWXvs/w-d-xo.html
If I ever earn a million i will spend it at your garage .. well done 👍
Thank you so much! We take that as a high compliment. Truly appreciate you watching and commenting!
Amazing. Top work 👏
Thank you so much 😀
:-)
Is that blower actually functional and able to be turned off and on again? If so, how? And how does it effect the f/a ration in terms of performance?
That is some serious craftsmanship. Much respect to the artists who built and fabbed this machine. Not something a youtube mechanic could do.
This particular build has our "On/Off Prop Blower" option. You can see it in depth more here: th-cam.com/video/vIpUX0qUxJQ/w-d-xo.html We do also build cars with functional blowers for clients who want them. While the technology exists to build a functional on/off blower, it is quite cost prohibitive and without extreme additional effort would not look screen correct. We would still do it if someone wanted us too. Thank you for the kind words!
Lord, the one movie car I absolutely would have to have if i had the means. MM2/Road Warrior version is my personal favorite.
Mine too! We do build that version. If you ever find yourself in a position that you want to get a build going feel free to contact the team at www.madmaxcars.com
@@MadMaxCars Right on, I dunno, the open cabin sucks but the dog seat and big gas tanks make the look for me. I think I'd need a helluva windfall to make this happen lol. Or stay working my overseas job here for way longer than I'd like :D
Love yalls site anyways, great reference for the vehicles and other bits of MM.
@@goldenhide Yeah the MM2 version is not for everyone, but does look WAY COOL!!! Glad you like what we do. Thanks so much for watching and for your cool comments!
When you guys run out of Fords to import and do up as interceptors, go for the Night Riders car....1972 Holden HQ Monaro.
Get some Aussie cars into circulation in the U.S. LOL
We have actually been importing Australian Muscle Cars for folks around the world since the late 1990s. In that time we have brought in Monaros, Toranas, Chargers, as well as the Falcons and Landaus (Utes, Sedans, Panel Vans, Wagons, Hardtops) etc. As always if someone wants us to build a replica (maybe you want one?) we will gladly. So all one would have to do is contact us and get a build started.
Come getsum, my black Challenger SRT is ready for you....
Excellent! If you want the guys to work on it feel free to contact us at www.madmaxcars.com
Absolutely stunning. It's just a shame that these Aussie falcons are bringing almost triple what they did 20 years ago. It was always a dream to get one but at a 100k plus it will have to remain one..
Yes, they do cost a ton more now than thy used to 20 years ago especially. Kinda like just about any other really desirable classic muscle car, but more so than usual.
:-(
They were always expensive, but not like 100k expensive like they are now. About 20 years ago there was one in the paddock up the road from my house. It got crushed. I wish i could have saved it.
1 mean aussie car always loved that model scarce as hens teeth now
Thats for sure!
Such a pity they changed the front of the car for the movie, the XB had the best looking grill out of the three models of that body style, looked excellent. Still a great looking car though, enjoyed the vid.
While we 1000% agree that the XB has an amazing style to the front end and grille, we also find the custom touches they did with the Pursuit Special / Interceptor truly contributed to the futuristic feel of the movie. Gotta admit, even if you prefer the original grille, the amazing Concorde nosecone that Peter Arcadipane made looks so Badarse! The car did look great in the film for sure, agree 100% there, and the stock XBs do too! Glad you enjoyed the video!
Please email Doug Demuro (the youtube car review guy) and ask him if he can review the interceptor. That would be cool.
What is his email? I will pass it on to the guys, along with your recommendation.
Only in my dreams i could own a car like this...so ill be going back to sleep to dream of owning one
We wish you the sweetest dreams then! If ever you feel that you are in a position to have one built, we are here to make those dreams come true. In the meantime thank you for watching and for your comment!
"Kick it in the guts, Barry."
She's the last of the V8s
the passing car on the other side @4:11 those people are flipping out over that car.
Heck yeah, people will ALWAYS go wild seeing this car go by!!
The Original car for the film was bought in Orange N.S.W. AUSTRALIA.
Quite right from what I understand. It was was originally ordered by Rural Motors in Orange, NSW. The film crew bought it from an auction in Frankston, Vic. which was selling it off from a rumored repossession in the Dandenong area.
Does it have the lights and siren? :-)
Absolutely! You can actually se the light being shown right before the ride, and the siren controller during one of the pan arounds in the interior.
Very interesting video. I do love the Mad Max interceptor however; I have a question, I hope that I am wrong wrong but there does not appear to be any form of air filtering on the intake. Surely if the new owner wants to use it as a daily driver the engine will get wrecked in no time. Just saying. I have owed a number of Oz Falcons XA's and XB's only saloons but but never a coupe. Looks great BTW.
Thank you for watching and for the kind words. As for the blower question.... In the case of this car as well as the majority of the cars we build for clients, they have the "Movie Magic" prop on/off blower drive as shown in the video here: th-cam.com/video/vIpUX0qUxJQ/w-d-xo.html As you can see there is an air cleaner on the carb in this setup. However, engines with a functional blower generally do not have any air filtration as you point out. When we build a replica with a functional blower, they fall into this category. Its one of the unfortunate drawbacks of a blower engine. We do discuss these and other details with any client seriously considering a functional blower car.
@@MadMaxCars Thank you for your detail reply. Yeah I guess that makes sense as they are prop cars. They look fantastic and lots of fun to own and drive. Thanks again for your reply.
@@M0XFXUK Glad to help! Many of our client/owners do "Daily" their cars, or really often anyway. They are true road read cars built to be driven. We pride ourselves on show quality replicas of the on screen cars we replicate. Again, our pleasure!
MadMaxCars.. how much would cost to build a Falcon exactly like this approximately?
You can find some basic approximate build levels with related costs on our website, or contact the team directly for more specific costing for your project. www.madmaxcars.com
Could you build one where the supercharger is fully functional and not just a prop?
Absolutely! We do build them with a functional blower when the clients want that. We even appeared on the pilot episode of "Junkyard Empire" converting Andy's replica to a functional supercharger. Most clients however want the "Movie Magic" superhero power of the On/Off blower. We make that look the goods as well, you can see that here: th-cam.com/video/vIpUX0qUxJQ/w-d-xo.html
Awesome work! Is the Blower "real" ??
We will actually build these cars with a real functional blower for clients who want it. However most want the "Movie Magic" superhero power of the "on/off" blower. For those clients (including the above build) we do use a "real" blower to build the non functional (ie no boost) "prop" on/off blower. You can see how that works here: th-cam.com/video/vIpUX0qUxJQ/w-d-xo.html
How much to get a beast like this one and where to get it from?? It is badass!!!!
We can definitely help you with a build. Also as of this moment there is an amazing deal on a finished Turn Key car in our classifieds. For earthier option, or just to discuss possibilities, please feel free to contact the team at www.madmaxcars.com
P.s. dude driving looks like the night rider
We will tell Lane you said so. I bet he will be stoked at the compliment!!
Just how real is it? 650H.P. too the wheels? Will it do better than 135 mph wide open? Might be a looker, and rare, still only a movie star. Made Mel Gibson a Star.
Well, there is a lot of prohibitively costly if not nearly impossible things that the mechanic (as well as the action) in Mad Max claims about the car. "Sucks Nitro" for example, "Twin Overhead Cam" as well. Possible? Yes. Make any practical sense even in the movie world for a street driven vehicle with the engine as shown on screen? Not really. Same goes for the Iconic "on/offf" blower. The mechanic claims "600 HP", not 650. In any case, the car you see in the above video has a 351C built as a 408 Stroker, which makes a good deal of HP. So, Yes a looker, Yes Rare, Yes a "Movie Star", but also a pretty brutal piece of street going Muscle Car. I hope that comes close to answering your question.
Too bad Mel Gibson beat the hell out of that car...
@@toddmccullough7778 Well the original is still around. It did get some lively action and did some hard driving stunts, but its still in one piece. Except of course the 1 double stunt car they built that they rolled down the hill and blew up. That one still exists as well, its in the Mad Max 2 museum in Broken Hill.
Can you build a Mad Max Interceptor with the wheel on the left side or because of the way it's built does it have to be on the right. Also, can you build one with automatic?
We can do both. In fact we are building one with an Automatic right now by special request from the client. People ask us if we can convert them to Left Hand Drive very regularly. We certainly could. However my first response to that question (after "yes we can") is to ask why someone would want to spend all that extra money to take away one of the cool and unique qualities of that car. So far nobody has followed through with having us do it.
@@MadMaxCars its because even though its unique and special feature I would like it to be like every other car. Automatic with the driving on the left. However when I think of the car. I think the black on black paint with the blower is the special thing.
@@MadMaxCars also what's the price with the left drive and automatic worth so I can start saving up
@@Drake_4 Certainly every fan has a unique prospective on what makes such an iconic car special to them. The paint, blower, zooms and the like are undoubtedly iconic elements special to most of the Mad Max fans out there. As you plan out a replica built the way you want it, absolutely look towards having it the way it would be most enjoyable to you. When you are ready to start a build, if converting it to RHD (and adding an automatic transmission) is an important element to you, then we can absolutely add that to your build.
@@Drake_4 For detailed pricing, particularly with special request touches like those, you will want to contact the team at www.madmaxcars.com for details. They will be glad to help you.
Завидую вам, парни, очень бы хотелось увидеть данный автомобиль вживую, хотя бы увидеть, даже не прокатиться
Если вы когда-нибудь окажетесь в Сиэтле, пожалуйста, дайте нам знать. Мы будем рады показать вам различные сборки, которые у нас есть в магазине. Спасибо за просмотр и за ваш комментарий! - If you ever find yourself in Seattle, please feel free to let us know. We would be glad to show you the various builds we have underway in the shop. Thank you for watching and for your comment!
How many road warrior versions do you make compared to this one? Maybe its just me but I’d so rather have the beat up version with the tanks in the back
Mad Max 1 version is by far the most popular. Probably 5 to 1 at least compared to Roadwarrior and Fury Road versions combined.
:-)
What are the original tire, Rim size, and Oddset of both Back and front?
For those specific technical details you will want to contact the team at www.madmaxcars.com
Hood @1:06 is what I'm looking is not correct. The pinstripe should connect, not run off the front.
Ah now what you're saying makes sense. So this car is one of a handful that we worked on but did not build. We have kind of become a Made Max Interceptor Service Center for owners as well as a builder. Whomever built and painted this one did the hood to the early run XBGT pattern rather than the later XBGT and Movie correct style. You will see all of our builds reflect this same later version of the factory paint / screen used style. Like this one for example: th-cam.com/video/h5T-qMpuXPo/w-d-xo.html
I got lucky as shit, I got my Falcon for $26k!
Sounds like a amazing deal if you got it recently. Back in the late 90s when we first started importing cars you could get one for under 10K landed in the USA, or a GT for under 15K. Not now though.
What a fuckin sweet ass ride!
Thank you! We do love them!
🤘🏽 awesome stuff ✌🏽
Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you for watching and for your comment!😁.
:-)
Was this car originally a XB GT? I'm curious because the 70-72 Gran Torino looks a lot like the Falcon and I've been wondering if it's possible to convert an old Torino into a Mad Max 72 Falcon Interceptor.
The base car was a Australian Falcon XB Hardtop, but not a genuine GT. The GTs are so rare and valuable, it would not only add huge unnecessary extra expense to the build but it would also needlessly devalue an ultra rare classic when a base model would turn out just as awesome as a finished replica. As for the Torino, the 1970-71 sports roof body does have a very close general silhouette and is often used to build "Tribute" Mad Max cars due to the similarity. However it would cost more to "Convert" one into a XB Falcon than it would to just get the genuine article. The "Gran Torino" of later years really does not even have the passing resemblance of the Torino. I hope that helps. Thanks for watching!!
@@MadMaxCars thank you sir! I'm a GM guy at heart and always will be but the Ford Falcon Mad Max interceptor is my dream car. Love the work.
@@Payne427 Our pleasure! Thank you for watching and the kind words!
How much was the build?!
Each build we do is a custom project planned out with the customer, so total cost varies quite a bit depending in no small part on equipment and finish choices the client decides. If you are interested in having one built, the guys at www.madmaxcars.com can answer any questions and work up a build to your specific wants.
One flaw I saw was the hood detail; it connects in the front, but still a nice car.
Thank you for the compliment. As far as a "flaw" I guess I am not clear what you are seeing. I can only guess you mean the satin blackout. That however is done in the pattern correct for GT or screen accuracy, so I must surmise you have something else in mind. Can you clarify?
It's Matte black not satin black. The paint scheme was described as "Black on Black" by the movie's art director, Jon Dowding. Ray interpreted it as gloss and matte black similar to the factory XB GT design, differing only in swooping up from the rear wheel arch to follow the line of the rear spoiler. The paint was done by Rob Smythe, Beckerley's friend from a former place of employment. Same source as above.
@@cblades2002 I am still curious what you meant by "flaw" in the hood detail, you said something about it not being connected? The factory GT blackouts are actually 20% gloss which comes out a satin sort of finish. Other than incorrectly restored cars they visually look satin. Remember true Matte has an almost chalky appearance with absolutely zero glossy sheen. Definitely not how the movie car or unrestored GTs look.
@@MadMaxCars th-cam.com/video/NQyPPTzxcfM/w-d-xo.html @2:25 for the paint scheme
@@cblades2002 I have totally seen this video before. Cool history retrospective! Whats totally amusing is he says "Matte" while showing images of cars with satin blackouts. Its easy to tell, if there is ANY reflectivity AT ALL its not Matte. So many people do not get the distinction and that's ok. In the images he shows (both of stock GTs and the screen used car, as well as the couple replicas he shows images of) you can see the reflectivity. Its minimal since its only 20% gloss but there you have it. Easy to spot. Truly its mostly semantics since the average person just universally uses the term "Matte" for both Satin and Matte, so we can agree to disagree.
I respect and love your save and restore the falcons and the look on layne face said it all and still my dream car if I won the uk lotto just give me the right numbers so I can win as mine would be restomod brake,s running gear, ecoboost and suspension and beat french rules to be legal as there super fussy and take in into mountains and all shows and a few sleeper tricks and more ;-) let you're chap test it I dare you to find me the wining numbers it's the duck guts
Sounds like a great build! We are here when you are ready! Thank you for watching and for the comment!
:-)
Awesome 👍🏻😀 have you done for other clients, changeed to left hook ? Or have you done one in the second movie old and ruff ?? Just asking seeing what people like as alot of people doing patina look , but I'm to brok to buy anything at the moment lol
We have been asked if it is possible to change the car to LHD, which it totally is. I always ask however, why anyone would want to spend more to take away one of the cool and unique things about the car, and make it less movie accurate at the same time. So nobody has had us do it. We have built and are building Mad Max 2 and Fury Road versions of the Interceptor, as well as the Red XA Bat, 58 DeSoto and Lord Humungus machine from Mad Max 2. You can see those in other videos on our channel if you like.
@@MadMaxCars ok will look for those later to watch 👍🏻😀 yeah I'm in New Zealand so it's right hook here , just alot regulations here if it's left hook car to be on the road, obviously it's not like that over there 😀👍🏻
@@deopersad2915 Yeah, no issues here at all. In fact just about every postal carrier, Ice Cream Man, Meter maid, etc all drive RHD vehicles to facilitate their work. Imported cars with RHD are generally not an issue, particularly if they are over 25 years old.
How much are they?
For build details and pricing, please feel free to contact the team at www.madmaxcars.com they will be glad to discuss all the details of your build and answer any questions you might have.
Какой же он великолепный
Полностью согласен!!
Это тот автомобиль, который я себе хотел бы
Хороший выбор! Мы на 100% согласны!! Good choice! We 100% agree!!
💯⭐️💪🏼❤️🔥
Yeah!
Нагнетатель вы сделали именно рабочим с принудительным отключением или он как и в фильме только имитирует работу?)
We do build them with a functional supercharger for the clients who want it that way. Most however want the "Movie Magic" on/off blower as seen in the film like this one. Мы создаем их с функциональным нагнетателем для клиентов, которые этого хотят. Однако большинство хочет включить / выключить вентилятор «Магия кино», как в этом фильме.
@@MadMaxCars понял, спасибо, вот это я понимаю возродить специального преследователя из пепла, тачка супер 💪👍
@@user-hy4dl6ve2v Glad to help. Thank you for watching and for your comments!! Рад помочь. Спасибо за просмотр и за комментарии !!
:-)
It's a 351 Cleveland big block with super charger and jack hat with zoomies that sucks nitro .
Heck Yeah!
Looks like The Nightrider has hijacked an Interceptor again.
Lol, yeah!
Take my money, house, wife, and firstborn!
If you do want to get one of these cars (or any Movie & TV starcar, or cool classic) contact the team about at build. You can reach us at www.madmaxcars.com
Wth shifter was that?!
I think the shifter is a fairly standard aftermarket unit, but that shift knob is certainly unique. Personal preference of the client over the normal XBGT shifter and knob we normally install for screen accuracy.
so weird seeing that driver view on the wrong side of the road! :)
yeah, I know, we are actually in the minority and it sucks
Whether you mean the view of driving a RHD car on the right side of the street, or the view out the windshield from the passenger seat being on the left side (Depends on where you are in the world I guess), VERY TRUE!! Such a fun car to drive for either of those reasons and more! Thanks for watching and for your comment!
When is someone gonna make a Happy Max car? lol 😉
Once the film comes out so we have a reference to replicate that cheerful car! LOL!!
@@MadMaxCars It's easy. Just make a white Interceptor. Ain't ever seen anyone do THAT 😺
@@2ahdcat The original was a White GT before they built it for the film.
@@MadMaxCars I know, I'm old, lol. BUT no-one's made this car in white. This car being the Last of the V-8 Interceptors from Mad Max
@@2ahdcat Well it would take someone wanting to have one built for them customized that way. If you are in the market we can paint yours white. What did you want to do about the Satin Black trim? Stay black or go satin white? Something else?
