Gone in 60 Seconds (NAC) complete waste of time

[Ryan Hoitink]

For the record, no actual Shelby Mustangs were used in the movie.  All were
originally '67 fastbacks, of varying option levels.  All were found in local
advertisements in southern California.  The most exciting one of the bunch
was a GT with a 390.  I believe a total of 12 cars were used in the movie,
of which 7 remain.  None were very nice, and were only made to look good in
the movie.  Most of them even had automatic transmissions.  In fact, the
nicest one of the bunch was the "gift" car that Cage receives at the end.
It had many performance mods, such as a disc brake rearend, and rack and
pinion steering.  All of this information comes from a feature article in
the latest issue of Mustang Monthly magazine, which I am looking at right
now, so it's authentic.  Apparently, the only way this movie would drive up
the prices of the  Shelbys is that it may have sparked more interest in the
cars.
