I spent most of the evening reading that site. Way more than the other one he was quoted in. It really helps with a long running debate I have had with an engineer here that insists there was only one of each car used in the film and all the driving is real not stunts or camera tricks (i.e.he believes the car floor pan really blew out during filming) and all the info on the internet that says otherwise is false.


It is great that your dad's car is one of the major reasons that the Supra name was resurrected!
