Quenton Tarantino's Death Proof
1:04
one day on Facebook Marketplace the Nova
1:07
popped up and being in Nova guy I ran
1:09
right out two towns over the original
1:12
owner his name was Mike and as you can
1:15
imagine he went by the gimmick of
1:17
Stopman Mike this is in my opinion one
1:20
of Tarantino's best movies this was
1:22
everything that represented what was
1:23
great about stunts not just movie Cars
1:25
Quinton had put together like the
1:28
topnotch team of people like put
1:30
together the scenes that are in this
1:32
movie Yes here in Keyport New Jersey
1:35
farks supercars took us in did all the
1:39
work on the car everything from the
1:41
motor back has been changed if you want
1:44
a deathproof car sometimes you got to go
1:46
to the professionals to do the work
1:49
other than the skin it's a race car
1:51
underneath so we have a 383 stroker
1:54
Chevrolet in there aluminum heads fuel
1:57
injection disc brakes we have a
2:00
two-speed power glide transmission leads
2:02
to a u gm1 12 bolt 411 gears
2:07
AFCO uh adjustable shocks Cal track bars
2:11
Cal trck Springs fuel cell in the back
2:14
we get about 8 mil to the gallon so we
2:16
don't really stretch out this far coming
2:18
down here but we changed some things
2:20
around so that we can come to shows we
2:23
wanted to make a more of a driver we
2:25
have slicks and race tires at home so we
2:29
threw on these Wheels shot down here you
2:32
know turned the shocks up nice and loose
2:34
so we didn't have any problems it just
2:37
screams badass like it's so cool oh yeah
2:40
he assembled a legendary stunt crew
2:42
which funny enough I believe is linked
2:45
to the movie Christine as well the same
2:47
guy who drove Christine when Christine
2:50
was on fire was part of the stunt team
2:53
that worked on this there is one moment
2:56
in the movie that has four of the best
3:00
stunt players on the planet Earth in one
3:03
shot together and all these different
3:07
them you starting with Terry going to
3:11
Buddy going to Tracy going to Zoe and
3:14
it's a shot for the St man's Museum I'm
3:16
very proud that uh shot like that
3:18
happened in my movie that put all four
3:19
of those stunt greates in one one frame
3:21
together and I love the idea of a of a
3:24
rogue stunt man like that that in itself
3:27
is such a badass and that Rogue stunt
3:29
man being Kurt Russell Kurt Russell it
3:32
is murder if you look in the car there
3:35
is no interior there's no windshield
3:38
wipers no air conditioning no there's no
3:42
airbags there's nothing except two seats
3:45
well in this case one seat so it's quite
3:49
a drive you get hot you stink of gas but
3:52
when you're in the car you're alive
3:53
you're white knuckling and that's the
3:55
only way I would have it if you haven't
3:58
watch Death Proof and double feature
3:59
plan of Terror fuckle up because a new
4:03
kind of terror is coming at 200
4:07
