Many things have changed over the 33 years that passed since George Miller's classic dystopian action flick Mad Max hit the big screen, but the blacked out Pursuit Special that served as Max Rockatansky's (played by Mel Gibson) police car remains as cool as ever.
The original Pursuit Special was a 1973 Ford Falcon XB GT, one of the most popular sports coupes in Australia at the time. A team led by Murray Smith modified the Aussie coupe into the beast that starred in the movie.The Mad Max Clone was built from scratch in 2010. Like the original model, it too is based on a 1973 Ford Flacon XB Coupe but features some modern amenities like the LED lights and an infotainment system.
