A bit of the saga Fast and dangerous has built an exact replica of the famous car Paul Walker in the first film.

“This car, this is the “Holy Grail”, it has marked a generation. It was this film that gave the taste to the people to modify their cars, ” says David Deschenes, who introduced his Toyota Supra orange at the auto Show.

The 42-year-old has invested more than $ 150 000 and took more than three years to trace the same parts that were used to build the car driven by the deceased actor.

No detail has been left to chance. “I have taken screenshots of the movie to see how were placed the screws on the dashboard. When I make pieces, I calculated to the nearest centimetre in order for this to be the same “, he says.

The Longueuillois has also received help from Craig Liberman, the creator of the real car used in the film. He dreams that his car will appear in a forthcoming film.
