      Some of the things he said aren't accurate. Only one working movie car survived the movie. The other was totaled while racing in the movie. And there are street legal MP4s other than his. Kit cars are still available. After the movie the Interceptor was sold to a man in Tennessee. After a long legal battle with Dodge he was able to keep the car minus the drivetrain and a few secret components. He painted it red and dropped in a V6. The rearview camera was actually a feature in the Wraith car. He kept it for several years before he sold it. Last I heard it was in a museum somewhere. The man from Tennessee's brother was a friend of the family and when he heard what a fan I was of the movie he gave me a picture of the red Wraith after it was redone. I still have the picture 35 years later.

Me and my brother in 80’s watched this on VHS so many times till our VCR finally decided it’s time to end this and ate up the tape, so to say I would love to own one of these with this attention to detail is a understatement.

    Greatest TV movie ever made. A perfect time for a car like this. Loved seeing the Mopar valve cover in the open hood scene. Forget 'V' and the creepy rubber skin covered lizards! Charlie Sheen! It is on UA-cam right now - with ads which is cool since it will make it feel like seeing it the first time.

    The Wraith really is a great movie. Some 80s movies don't hold up now but this one really does. Basically High Plains Drifter in cars and really well done.

    That’s really cool because I’ve never seen anyone recreate the Wraith car. I almost pissed myself when I found the movie on DVD because I rarely ever met anyone who knew what the Wraith was. I knew the car was a prototype but I never knew what it was based on. I always thought the Jaguar XJ220 looked similar and as a teenager in the 90s I had an XJ220 poster on my wall

    Loved this car since 86, always wanted one but I'll have to keep dreaming. The original 4cyl cosworth engine was a 440hp beast. Jay Leno had Charlie Sheens car on his channel a few yrs ago. He didnt take good care of it,,not surprised. 🤘💯

    Jay showing off this build is incredible! He is proud of things like AC and windshield wipers. His all about future tech that exceeds nascar and F1 tech!!!! He's a perfect reminder to every, myself included that in the end, your success and happiness can only be judged by oneself and not others, with some additional reminders however. One must be fully committed to all your truths. lies, and delusions! That's not as easy as you think. Its one of the few reasons why I can respectfully tip my hat to Jay here but at the same time why, even if I was homeless right now, why I wouldn't be remotely tempted to trade lives with Jay, if it meant I had to walk on this planet like Jay over here, being ignorant as hell, with his ridiculous delusional thoughts that he has been feeding himself since the age of 5. That's commitment for sure! BTW, my apologies if I come off sounding obnoxious. This simply is just my candid reaction and how I see it. I guess I was triggered by his delusions haha!

So cool! Props to all of the hard work and brainstorming that had to go into this! From fantasy car to real car. Can you do another video where you really open it up on a track? Please?
