One of the two Buick Grand Nationals used in the fourth movie in the Fast and Furious series will be offered for auction at Barrett-Jackson's upcoming event in Scottsdale, Arizona, on Jan. 29.
The Grand National going up for sale was seen in the opening scene of the movie. The scene involved a gas tank robbery and a high-speed chase in reverse, performed of course by Dominic Toretto, the character played by Vin Diesel.
The other Buick Grand National used in the film that still exists was the one customized for the reverse driving shots. Its engine had been moved into the trunk for the occasion. Fortunately, the 1987 model being offered in Arizona is closer to its original condition. It did, however, undergo a few modifications for the film, such as the addition of a roll cage with a fake passenger seat so Michelle Rodriguez could stand on the floor and crawl out the window for a sequence.
