I've heard of this car before I think....

...on an a TV programme that was about selling authentic movie props. They were interviewing a collector (who also had the bike and Arnie's costume from Terminator 2 :shock: ) who had this car in his garage. They called it an actual car from the 3rd film but with all the replica's out there I found it hard to believe...

However, with this it seems it was real, as the fella also said it had sat in a prop store for a decade.

Here's a link to a summary of the episode and some pics... I'm pretty sure its the same car :) :

Yes it is a genuine official BTTF car from the 3rd film

I have a feeling it will fetch a fair bit of money but 600k ...

i reckon an official one used in the film should fetch at least $70k which has got to be better than all the copies iv seen, and i bet it was built in a garage ;)
