Movie Car Quiz

i remember reading an artical in hotrod mag on the mad max car once it was owned by a young kid in aussi who had built it him self. the movie people had seen it one day and just had to have it. they made the kid one hell of a deal to use it. they basicaly rented it from the kid and then when the movie was over they paid for him to finish building the car how he had intended. went into some specs on the car and stuff but only thing i can remember is that the blower did not work for the movie think it was gutted and used like an over priced tunnel ram.
