Yes. Most movie prop cars that are portrayed to be modified cars , are in reality not what they are portrayed to be, some more than others. I can think of two movie prop cars , that is of modified cars, that are true to life as they were portrayed in the movie they were featured in. Yellow’57 chevy from Hollywood Knights and the Two Lane Blacktop ‘55 chevy. I’m sure there are others as well.
