Maintenance & restoration

  1. Modification
    Immersi FX

    Vehicle converted for professional stunt work: chassis reinforced, internal roll cage fitted, suspension upgraded, quick-release body panels installed, and a roof-mounted driving rig added to support camera coordination and chase choreography.

    Work carried out in Los Angeles ahead of John Wick: Chapter 2 production.

  2. Modification
    Immersi FX

    Roof-mounted driving rig removed and car reconfigured following destruction of the primary jump vehicle, enabling this example to complete the warehouse jump and ensuing chase scenes.

    Adaptation took place during production; the car sustained continuity damage including loss of the driver's door.

  3. Service

    Car requires recommissioning before road use: a replacement oil pan must be fitted (supplied with the vehicle) and front suspension alignment is needed to correct impact damage sustained on set.

    Work not yet carried out as of the time of sale.
