Back to the paint names-codes: Plymouth and Dodge had different names for some colors with the same code in the same year. The film cars were painted in the 1971 Y3 - Plymouth called it "Curious Yellow", Dodge called it "Citron Yella". Yellow-greenish. See the color charts Dodge-Plymouth from different years. In the original cinema version, the Laserdisk AND the German TV version the color was 1969 Y2-like.

One of the saddest scenes on celluloid.

That and Kowalski's Vanishing Point. Some solice that it was Camero getting the crunch. A good choice by producers. They fold like a Walmart lawn chair in a mild wind.

OK, so it took a bit of searching, but I found a photo I posted quite a few years back of a diorama I made up in a hurry for a competition....more for fun really.
Used 1:64 scale models - Matchbox Bulldozer from the '70's ....had to buy from an auction site locally to get a decent pair, plus new tracks etc....
Hotwheels '68 Camaro hood coming off the '70 Challenger body - representing the Challenger driving head-long into the roadblock, and if you watch the movie you see a Camaro hood fly into the resulting ball of flame/dust etc. This was done as a still image obviously and is my interpretation.

I did a series of stills for the competition, but I have been unable to find the pictures at this time.
The pic above was found in the history of this site.

I still drive the roads where DMCL was filmed regularly... Saw some of it at the Drive In when it was first released... Michelle (my GF at the time) kept me from seeing any more of the film...

Years ago while cruising the area, I accidently "found" the grocery store that Larry and Deke robbed at the beginning of the movie.

I hope you didn't squash the tomatoes.
