I remember reading that Max's dog was a stray they found that was super easy to train so they didn't have to spring for some 'actor' dog, and then one of the crew took him home forever. Best dog ever!
It was actually Mr. Mel Gibson that took him home himself. He named him Hudson. He was 3 years at the time of filming. He was 18 when he passed if I read and recollect correctly. Hudson was shown in more movies after Mad Max 2: Fury Road. In the first Mad Max, the Golden Retriever was also a stray dog that was quite hilariously and ironically named by Mel "Goldy. Goldy was 5 years old when in the first Mad Max. He lived to be 15. Mel adopted and cared for both. Mel was a dog sanctuary caretaker. Fun fact: He absolutely grew attached to Hudson during filming that in the first week, him and Hudson only followed each other around set in between filming.

The first movie was just a dystopian future Australia with roving criminal gangs taking over and the police unable to stop them. The 2nd and subsequent films moved the timeline forward to after the fall of society in a "wasteland"
As mediumvillain said, the first Mad Max movie is set during the last stages of the collapse of society, so roads, infrastructure, even the police force, are all still around, albeit barely. But Mad Max 2 is set more than ten years later, in a world without law and order, and by the time you get to Thunderdome it's just complete wasteland chaos. I don't know if Fury Road is in this timeline, I don't think it is personally, but if it is then that's the ultimate wasteland, I mean, like decades upon decades after the collapse of civilisation, where the oceans have dried up and the infrastructure has been buried under sand dunes. In Mad Max: The Game (an awesome game by the way) it's implied that civilisation actually collapsed sometime in the 2000s, with photographs of cars from the 1990s. If this is true, then Mad Max: Fury Road and Mad Max: The Game exist in their own seperate timeline. Anyway, yeah, nah, the original three movies are the three stages of societal collapse.

that car was personification of Max's madness and revenge. Seeing it crashed on the beginning of second movie broke my heart. well you can always return back to the first one...
I always thought the interceptor got a bad deal on the 2nd movie and fury road. If max is the MFP's top patrol driver why can't he do some evasive driving thus saving his car?
I love how in the scene where max gets shot in the leg the police radio actually talks about his car and how its been located it's overshadowed by the music but you can clearly hear the dispatch operator talking about what he did on the bridge with the car clearly showing that he's being chased by the cops because of him stealing the car but can't find him because he's always one step ahead of them

It used to piss me off so much that in both Road Warrior and Fury Road they destroy the Interceptor, the very ride of Max himself. It was such a cool car and I always thought (and still do, to a degree) that he should have been allowed to keep it all throughout one or both of those movies, sort of like how the hero gunslinger always has his black steed. However, then I started thinking from a storyteller's perspective, and it actually made more sense. The story wants Max to interact with other people, have a chance to bond and form various relationships, some good, some bad, but above all else, he can not be allowed to remain a loner. If that happened the story would go nowhere. And the Interceptor is the one thing that allows Max to drive away from people, to remove himself from the story and just remain an outcast with nothing and no one to interact with. So from the narrative point of view, I understand perfectly why it has to be done. But it still hurts when that machine is trashed... every. single. time.

I grew up seeing lots of iconic movie cars. Smokey and the Bandit, Dukes of Hazzard, Knight Rider and more. Although in my humble opinion nothing holds a fuel injector to the black on black, blown, monza-d interceptor.
Yeah, there is something about high speed gritty car chases that bleeds dopamine into my brain. Not shitty, really over the top ones, but ones like these. All the mad max movies have wicked car action.

Used to own one of these cars. It was a factory ordered 1974 Ford Falcon XB Fairmont coupe, 351 GS(grand sports) 3 speed auto. Blue in colour with white interior, blue cloth seat inserts and a sunroof. Awesome car but used to get pretty car sick in the back seat. Sold it for $2800 in '79. On a sad note, it got flattened a few months later by a semi-trailer in Cooma. Would have been worth about $80-100k now.
The V8 Interceptor in Mad Max 1 and Mad Max 2 was a XB GT Ford Falcon Coupe (JG66) The one they Destroyed in Mad Max 2 was a Standard XB Ford Falcon Coupe tricked up to look like the V8 Interceptor and was used for all the Stunt Work in Mad Max 2 and the Original Car was used for close ups in Mad Max 2. XB GT Ford Falcon Coupes are a Muscle Car in Australia and are a rare car alone, so for the V8 Interceptor to be a GT Falcon Coupe it just add to the value.
I love how all the madmax films have a mix of straight dialogue and quirky character traits along with straight to the point characterizations that put all the characters but max into the comfortable borderline between realistic and camp making Maxs' low key straight man characterization very grounded. All the films seem to be like that. Toecutter, humongous, master blaster, almost everybody in fury road they all have the feel of like a pirates of the Caribbean Disney ride. They are all uniquely quirky while also being able to communicate to the audience exactly what they are about in a glance or a single line of dialogue. There just is no movie series that pulls it off like Mad Max.
0:26 MUSIC TO MY EARS ! ! ! THE SOUND OF THAT SUPERCHARGED V8 NITRO-INJECTED ENGINE WHEN IT STARTS UP ! ! ! WHAT A BEAUTIFUL SOUND THAT IS ! ! !👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Less than 15 minutes of screen time and this car manage to get into every heart of each mad max interceptor fan. Part of me wishes that the interceptor wasn't wrecked :( At least we got it to see it a little bit un fury road. Thanks for this video :D
The original Australian cult classic, one of the most awesome movies ever made. The Interceptor was a true hot rod. No one knows how to pound out the hot rods of the world like us and the Aussies.
Yeh my dad has one of those Chevy Caprice old cop cars that’s just a rebadged Holden. I drove that thing while my car was in the shop without realizing how much power it had and needless to say it’s terrifying compared to my Honda Civic lmao
@@cyberdynefirefox3681 MAD MAX (1979) is the best, Mad Max2: The Road Warrior (1981) is a good, and Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome (1985) is a fine. By the way, I am a Japanese fan. In addition, there is a privately owned museum in Japan that displays interceptor replicas. Not only the interceptor but also the BTTF Delorian and Batman Car are on display at the museum, making it a very fun museum. www.ps-car.com/index.php
@@deathvoiceshout For me the 3. is fine only in ending in Post-Apocalyptic Sydney. Very impressive museum. In EU thanks EU union the old cars looks like would be history...
All fast and furious combined..... Not even close to the pure adrenaline on this movie, no CGI, NO BS, ... first time i saw these movies.... mind blowing. The V8, the crew, the production, master mind George Miller and legend Mel Gibson.... best movies ever!!!
Quando il film è uscito in Italia, con gli amici l'abbiamo visto 3 proiezioni di seguito. Spettacolo delle 16,00 delle 18,15 e delke 20,30. Avevamo 19 anni. Un capolavoro assoluto. Grande Max
When GTA came out with the Arena Wars DLC, and there was a car based on Max's Interceptor. You're damn right I bought the thing and made the car look exactly like his Interceptor. A truly beautiful iconic movie car.
@@govetter THAT's what I tell anyone who would listen! It's the Last of tha Pontiacs! And now, I'm MAD! Chasing tankers..., clippin' bikers. Loadin' my Double-barrel, and NOT hitting the RED button, Mostly!
For movie buffs and people who like R&B. The first Mad Max was mostly filmed in and around a township called little river 40 minutes outside Melbourne Australia. The Australian band Little river named themselves after passing a road sign indicating the same little river township.
Definitely about the coolest car in any movie, and the simple visualizations and cinematography were pure genius. The remake "fury road" was total sacrilege to even try to relate it to the originals.
I thought Fury road was great (in my opinion). It was a film full of chases like Road warrior but the world is much more deadly which is why everything goes so much faster
i was blessed to be an oil changer and part holder for a high performance marine shop in my youth. everytime they test ran a 1000hp super charged v8 this ran through my head.
Whenever I can't sleep at night I just put on the relaxing sounds of the interceptor's engine. It's roar and the supercharger whine just send me right to sleep, it is so soothing.
This movie had style right down to the super charger intake scoop, never saw one like before or since. Miller proved he knew how to make the best use of the vehicles as integral to the story and not just window dressing.
2:26 - Loved the presumably unintentional yet genuine "beep beep beep" horn sound as the bike crashed with the left side of the handlebar hitting the dirt which made sense.
I lived near the area Mad Max was filmed, and drove around the streets seeing all the tyre marks. And when you see the actual distance those cars had to get up to speed...WOW!!!
David Edwards hey David, please post back here, I am planning something special regarding max filming locations and would love to pick your brain and possibly put you on in a small role advising.
Most legendary car to ever exist. Kit and The General, sorry, but you gotta take the backseat. Just the sound of that engine and the blower get my adrenaline going.
Alden R. Davis it was innovative, but the base of the vehicles in Mad Max were American. The Interceptor was the Aussie version of a Ford Galaxy, same chassis.
Mad Max 1 is all time classic, & I bought myself a beautiful 1;18 scale model of the MM XB interceptor for christmas last year, it takes pride of place next to K.I.T.T of course!
Tommy Orr Jr ..it’s actually made by ‘Greenlight’ they make it in at least 3 sizes. Good value for money and a nice replica of the car! KITT is a Hot wheels, that’s a pretty nice one too, wasn’t too expensive either. Probably should mention I have all 3 Back to the Future DeLoreabs too! That aside, today I got to see real size Mad Max cars at the SupaNova comic con event in Melbourne today. They had the yellow pursuit cars and of course the big bad black interceptor😁
@@KnightIndustries572 Yeah the hotwheels Kitt is probably the best 1/18 replica. I know there is 2 of them, cant remember who makes the other.There is a side by side comparison somewhere on youtube
3:16 Even a stuntman with a helmet is going to have a headache after that Shows you how dangerous practical stunts can be. As a rider that smack to the back of the head made me wince
Nice Car Black w/Black Int.1973 Ford Falcon XB with A 351 C and Dual Overhead Cams 600 HP at the Rear Wheels ! Piece Here A Piece There ! love Mad Max and Mad Max II !
You probably meant Pursuit Special (black one), which was '73 Ford Falcon XB GT, Interceptor (Max's first car) was 1974 Ford Falcon XB Sedan, ex Victoria Police Interceptor.
@@milllosh Yeah but try telling that to everyone these days..Its basically been renamed the interceptor just as Aussies cant grab the Moll/Mole difference either so they rewrote that.
@@Tommyblueeyes Well, I wouldn't blame Australians for renaming the Pursuit Special to Interceptor, I think it was just easier for worldwide public to remember and mention the car in a conversation. Happens with a lot of things. But then who knows, I am calling it Pursuit Special as it was meant to be and I gave up on any explanation, the previous comment was just to clarify, in case someone reads boutch71's comment and starts googling the car.
Heh- love when Max gets introduced to the Interceptor, standing utterly transfixed from 0:39 onward, because the stuntman who drove the thing said at a screening I attended that that was his reaction when they showed it to him! (O_O) George Miller's known for expecting props to work so it wasn't just built for show. "Shut the gate on this one, Maxie, it's the duck's guts!"
tought the blower was fake..it was not connected to the engine but to an electric motor ..so it was a "normal" 351 V8 exactly like his previous Interceptor (the Falcon XB Saloon he drivers at the start).. only that the black on black coupe was manual box while the saloon was automatic.. also the chromed rims the saloon had are the rims from the coupe as they bought it.. the coupe was fitter with other bigger wheels painted black
@@peterquintero2664 its fake as "it is not connected to the engine" but the internals are there so when the electric motor spins it it still whines..wich works for the movie
@@nermin9376 yeah lol, just in the news last week..I could be wrong about the 2mill, but thats what I heard..just tried looking again but can only find the article about it being auctioned
@@Tommyblueeyes it was not wanted after Road Warrior and was in a bl9kes property rusting away under covers for years until a fan rescued it and got it for knicks then restored it.
When my cousins showed me this we actually bought the American version of this car and my uncles and cousins built it with everything working things a beast of a muscle car the supercharger sounds like a jet engine so badass
Let's not forget to Thank the brave and courageous road construction crew of that dreadful wasteland era for without their contribution Mad Max would not be possible. *crowd goes wild!!!*

XB GT Ford Falcon Coupes are a Muscle Car in Australia and are a rare car alone, so for the V8 Interceptor to be a GT Falcon Coupe it just add to the value.
It's an American Ford Torino platform, with different grill and tail light panel.
"A piece from here and a piece there" Without a doubt THE nastiest automobile to hit the screen, Raw power! Awesome car, Awesome movie!
JayDogTitan 1464 Kurt’s car in Death Proof came close
Agree with you here 100 % !
Unfortunately the forced induction could not be real. It would blow the engine through the floor.
SHE'S LAST OF THE V8'S SHE SUCKS NITRO! BEST MOVIE!
This car has to be brought back to the Mad Max series! I love a lot of the customs in the movie, but that Interceptor is a monster!
Driving around all sweaty, angry and strung out. That takes me back
I love how all the madmax films have a mix of straight dialogue and quirky character traits along with straight to the point characterizations that put all the characters but max into the comfortable borderline between realistic and camp making Maxs' low key straight man characterization very grounded. All the films seem to be like that. Toecutter, humongous, master blaster, almost everybody in fury road they all have the feel of like a pirates of the Caribbean Disney ride. They are all uniquely quirky while also being able to communicate to the audience exactly what they are about in a glance or a single line of dialogue. There just is no movie series that pulls it off like Mad Max.
0:26 MUSIC TO MY EARS ! ! ! THE SOUND OF THAT SUPERCHARGED V8 NITRO-INJECTED ENGINE WHEN IT STARTS UP ! ! ! WHAT A BEAUTIFUL SOUND THAT IS ! ! !👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Less than 15 minutes of screen time and this car manage to get into every heart of each mad max interceptor fan.
Part of me wishes that the interceptor wasn't wrecked :(
At least we got it to see it a little bit un fury road.
Thanks for this video :D
bro. they wrecked REPLICAS. they would never wreck the real one...
@@HendoPlayz still, those replicas are still insane :D I’d love to get my hands in one of those, lol
same.
I wanted a supercharger like this one.
I love this for many reasons, BUT... After the first few bits, there is absolutely NO dialogue! (Mostly) Perfect!
The original Australian cult classic, one of the most awesome movies ever made. The Interceptor was a true hot rod. No one knows how to pound out the hot rods of the world like us and the Aussies.
Umm not a Hot rod at all, a muscle car
.
Love the beast ;)
Yeh my dad has one of those Chevy Caprice old cop cars that’s just a rebadged Holden. I drove that thing while my car was in the shop without realizing how much power it had and needless to say it’s terrifying compared to my Honda Civic lmao
uh, It was an Aussie Ford. I shake my head!
I love MAD MAX (1979) ! Forever !
And Mad Max 2 ?
@@cyberdynefirefox3681 MAD MAX (1979) is the best, Mad Max2: The Road Warrior (1981) is a good, and Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome (1985) is a fine.
By the way, I am a Japanese fan.
In addition, there is a privately owned museum in Japan that displays interceptor replicas.
Not only the interceptor but also the BTTF Delorian and Batman Car are on display at the museum, making it a very fun museum.

@@deathvoiceshout For me the 3. is fine only in ending in Post-Apocalyptic Sydney. Very impressive museum. In EU thanks EU union the old cars looks like would be history...
1:36 that shot when he fades away looks so symbolic, the moment Max becomes The Interceptor
watched the 4K version recently. the music is what stands out now, melodramatic orchestra for the win
And to think I had one of those xb falcons in the late 70s early 80s. Remember going to the movie theatre to see Max for the first time.
All fast and furious combined..... Not even close to the pure adrenaline on this movie, no CGI, NO BS, ... first time i saw these movies.... mind blowing. The V8, the crew, the production, master mind George Miller and legend Mel Gibson.... best movies ever!!!
Quando il film è uscito in Italia, con gli amici l'abbiamo visto 3 proiezioni di seguito. Spettacolo delle 16,00 delle 18,15 e delke 20,30. Avevamo 19 anni. Un capolavoro assoluto. Grande Max
Thank you, Australia for Mad Max!!!... they are grindhouse cult classics... some of the best action films of all time!!!!
When GTA came out with the Arena Wars DLC, and there was a car based on Max's Interceptor. You're damn right I bought the thing and made the car look exactly like his Interceptor. A truly beautiful iconic movie car.
Same, the apocalyptic version
1978 xc Ford cobra.
@@ivanbunting5448 it's an XB Ford Falcon
Have you played the actual Mad Max game that came out a few years ago...? Its class
@@dwaynedibbley436 yes I have its absolutely amazing!
"It's a Police Interceptor. One of last of the V8s..."
Pursuit Special.
I love my Holden/Pontiac G8 GT 2009! She's the last of the Pontiac's!
@@govetter THAT's what I tell anyone who would listen! It's the Last of tha Pontiacs! And now, I'm MAD! Chasing tankers..., clippin' bikers. Loadin' my Double-barrel, and NOT hitting the RED button, Mostly!
This was brilliant! Thank you. Best car movie and actor Mel Gibson ever brought together by the grace of God!
And the Road Warrior? That was the last we ever saw of him. He lives now... only in my memories.
A man reduced to a single instinct...Survive.
@@banff9858 More than that,but yeah.Yes.Brother.
yeah well
For movie buffs and people who like R&B. The first Mad Max was mostly filmed in and around a township called little river 40 minutes outside Melbourne Australia. The Australian band Little river named themselves after passing a road sign indicating the same little river township.
What? He went on to Thunderdome when 1 man and a retard gorilla entered and 1 man left.
Definitely about the coolest car in any movie, and the simple visualizations and cinematography were pure genius. The remake "fury road" was total sacrilege to even try to relate it to the originals.
pcdubya agreed. Also the truck in the movie "Duel" had evil screen presence.
I thought Fury road was great (in my opinion). It was a film full of chases like Road warrior but the world is much more deadly which is why everything goes so much faster
Fury road is fantastic movie can’t deny it but yeah I would love one more cop like movie with max and the interceptor
9:28 only the beasts of 70's can do the reversal full thrust while moving forward!! Raw power indeed
Hand brake turn baby…. Can’t do that in today’s cars….all electronic
I think he’s speaking of how most, if not all rwd cars back then had a locked differential from the factory. But yes your correct
This car is a legend,rest in peace falcon...
i was blessed to be an oil changer and part holder for a high performance marine shop in my youth. everytime they test ran a 1000hp super charged v8 this ran through my head.
Hey! Hold my Oil. I'll be right back!
Whenever I can't sleep at night I just put on the relaxing sounds of the interceptor's engine. It's roar and the supercharger whine just send me right to sleep, it is so soothing.
And then you wake up with a Cleveland rod hanging out your pillow after it detonates
It has to be THE best low budget film in existence.
Definitely 1 of the greatest movie cars EVER & what an amazing sound
The Mad Max Interceptor is the greatest vehicle on land..... The Millennium Falcon is the greatest vehicle in space..
Haha they are both Falcons
And only one is real.
BUT THE INTERCEPTOR SUCKS NITRO!
@@stevehenrichs5091 Haha be funny to hear.
Luke " What a piece if junk ! "
Han " It's a make .5, she sucks nitro " Lol
And they're always broken! HA!
This movie had style right down to the super charger intake scoop, never saw one like before or since. Miller proved he knew how to make the best use of the vehicles as integral to the story and not just window dressing.
2:26 - Loved the presumably unintentional yet genuine "beep beep beep" horn sound as the bike crashed with the left side of the handlebar hitting the dirt which made sense.
ULI BI FORS DAT ET TU BI CONTNUEDET
I've said it before, that Yellow dozer RIG that waved him around, shoulda been the RIG he snagged to haul the Tankah!! ... just sayin'.
Love that frame of the marauders eyes....right before impact !!..his eyes so unbelievin before hes squashed like a common bug
Mad Max and V8 Interceptor, two legends on the road
And Mel Gibson... This movie launched him to Hollywood .. a real classic movie,Mad Max... Forget the sequels😋
I lived near the area Mad Max was filmed, and drove around the streets seeing all the tyre marks. And when you see the actual distance those cars had to get up to speed...WOW!!!
@The Shaniac Do you got them chazwazzers?
little river?
David Edwards hey David, please post back here, I am planning something special regarding max filming locations and would love to pick your brain and possibly put you on in a small role advising.
Looks like willunga sa
jane blogs all of mad Max was filmed in Victoria.
Obra maestra del señor Gibson , mejor actor y director de la historia
When men acted like real men. Damn I miss the 80s.
Me too. This was also in 90s...
Couldn't agree more! Everything from the 80's is legendary, except the neon colors and moon bags.
I miss a good ol Rough and Tumble
1979
@@cyberdynefirefox3681 80's to 90's and the OST fills DECADES! Thx!
Most legendary car to ever exist. Kit and The General, sorry, but you gotta take the backseat. Just the sound of that engine and the blower get my adrenaline going.
The V8 Interceptor from Mad Max and Mad Max II: The Road Warrior is the best movie cars ever in Hollywood movie history.
It's not even Hollywood, it's Australian cinema.
Alden R. Davis it was innovative, but the base of the vehicles in Mad Max were American. The Interceptor was the Aussie version of a Ford Galaxy, same chassis.
Alden R. Davis thdhf
agreed. but I have to say the truck from the movie Duel is also badass
ziggy morris Not correct all Australian Made!
Mad Max 1 is all time classic, & I bought myself a beautiful 1;18 scale model of the MM XB interceptor for christmas last year, it takes pride of place next to K.I.T.T of course!
the autoart version? there is the version from the 1st movie now, its awesome..and thumbs up for KITT too!
Tommy Orr Jr ..it’s actually made by ‘Greenlight’ they make it in at least 3 sizes. Good value for money and a nice replica of the car! KITT is a Hot wheels, that’s a pretty nice one too, wasn’t too expensive either. Probably should mention I have all 3 Back to the Future DeLoreabs too! That aside, today I got to see real size Mad Max cars at the SupaNova comic con event in Melbourne today. They had the yellow pursuit cars and of course the big bad black interceptor😁
@@KnightIndustries572 Yeah the hotwheels Kitt is probably the best 1/18 replica. I know there is 2 of them, cant remember who makes the other.There is a side by side comparison somewhere on youtube
I just LOVE that this has Minimal Dialogue & Maximum SFX!
One of the greatest movies of all times that motorcycle was about a mile away and he still caught up to him unbelievable mind-boggling unreal
MY FAVORITE MOVIE CAR FOREVER!
That opening scene in The Road Warrior is my favorite piece of cinema ever
GSD fan absolutely agree! Pure blood pumping heart racing, tears falling cinematic gold!
HP Lovecraft Too right!
Only car guys understand
Great film!!!!
3:16 Even a stuntman with a helmet is going to have a headache after that
Shows you how dangerous practical stunts can be. As a rider that smack to the back of the head made me wince
Probably got some bonus beers (The gang was paid in beers)
I was 14, I saw it 1982 at cinema it rocked my world.
I still say to this day when its time to go home.
" you wanna get out of here, talk to me "
That Interceptor is a character of its own
Been watching this movie around 4 times a year since I was 15. I'm 52 now it's the best. All be watching it on my death bed most likely
Me too
Nice Car Black w/Black Int.1973 Ford Falcon XB with A 351 C and Dual Overhead Cams 600 HP at the Rear Wheels ! Piece Here A Piece There ! love Mad Max and Mad Max II !
no such thing as the dual overhead cam thing, but it sounded nice i guess
It's those side-pipes with deep-well rears. BadA$$!
@@vetterburns1048 The rears were actually only 265's
V8 Interceptor in fact "Ford Falcon XB Coupé 1973" Great car, Great Movie and Great actor Mel Gibson!
You probably meant Pursuit Special (black one), which was '73 Ford Falcon XB GT, Interceptor (Max's first car) was 1974 Ford Falcon XB Sedan, ex Victoria Police Interceptor.
@@milllosh Yeah but try telling that to everyone these days..Its basically been renamed the interceptor just as Aussies cant grab the Moll/Mole difference either so they rewrote that.
@@Tommyblueeyes Well, I wouldn't blame Australians for renaming the Pursuit Special to Interceptor, I think it was just easier for worldwide public to remember and mention the car in a conversation. Happens with a lot of things. But then who knows, I am calling it Pursuit Special as it was meant to be and I gave up on any explanation, the previous comment was just to clarify, in case someone reads boutch71's comment and starts googling the car.
My dad has a Ford xb coupe
Would LOVE to see Mad Max at the next Stop Oil protest, doing his thing!!!
This is the first movie I have seen in the cinema, and for this, I love speed, engines and gasoline; of course, this influenced me so much.
And dont forget for motor oil top up
“When do we go for a ride…”
Heh- love when Max gets introduced to the Interceptor, standing utterly transfixed from 0:39 onward, because the stuntman who drove the thing said at a screening I attended that that was his reaction when they showed it to him! (O_O) George Miller's known for expecting props to work so it wasn't just built for show. "Shut the gate on this one, Maxie, it's the duck's guts!"
tought the blower was fake..it was not connected to the engine but to an electric motor ..so it was a "normal" 351 V8 exactly like his previous Interceptor (the Falcon XB Saloon he drivers at the start).. only that the black on black coupe was manual box while the saloon was automatic.. also the chromed rims the saloon had are the rims from the coupe as they bought it.. the coupe was fitter with other bigger wheels painted black
@@sparrowlt I thought it was fake too, well it doesn't look functional
@@peterquintero2664 its fake as "it is not connected to the engine" but the internals are there so when the electric motor spins it it still whines..wich works for the movie
Mad Max and The Road Warrior are the best!
Mad Max's V8 Interceptor is the only car I've wanted since i was a kid and will still want one when I'm a wrinkled old man
Chris LeBrun I’m a not quite wrinkled old man (I’m 67) and I want one just as bad!
@@robo08ify it'll take me another 33 years until I'm 67 but by the time I become that age I'll still be dreaming and drooling over that car haha 😂
great movie this will stay in history
My parents let me watch this as a kid, on repeat. All my gijoe vehicles perished in the great road chase
The look on his face when the mechanic says 600hp to the wheels is priceless!!!
through the wheels
This car is awesome.This is my favorite car of them all. No joking. I found it iconic from the first scene it was introduced
1973 Ford Falcon XB / GT Coupe
That supercharger whine deserves its own line in the credits.
fake supercharger
An absolute original that put Mel on the map,,, a master piece.. can watch it over and over..still intense
This is by far the BEST movie I’ve ever seen
Great film.
max's car looks like a super machine.
max's car is so bad ass.
Got the chance to see this at the drive-in, a classic place to see this classic movie. I wanted this car.
We all wanted that car

@@Tommyblueeyes wow man expensive piece of steel haha
@@nermin9376 yeah lol, just in the news last week..I could be wrong about the 2mill, but thats what I heard..just tried looking again but can only find the article about it being auctioned
@@Tommyblueeyes it was not wanted after Road Warrior and was in a bl9kes property rusting away under covers for years until a fan rescued it and got it for knicks then restored it.
ESTA PELÍCULA ES CÓMO EL HIMNO DE TU PAÍS....!!!!!! INOLVIDABLE..!!!❤🇦🇷🌹
When my cousins showed me this we actually bought the American version of this car and my uncles and cousins built it with everything working things a beast of a muscle car the supercharger sounds like a jet engine so badass
Thats one of the best 15m i have ever seen on you tube,well done,good quality too.
Almost NO dialogue except for 'nice doggie' lol
Let's not forget to Thank the brave and courageous road construction crew of that dreadful wasteland era for without their contribution Mad Max would not be possible. *crowd goes wild!!!*
I was in my late teens and driving on a lot of the roads that were in the movie….me and my mates were pumped lol.😊
The legendary V8 ... from the cradle to the grave. 😢
