I knew I recognized it from somewhere... Turns out it was featured on /Drive 4 years ago, or at least one identical to the movie car.

Yeah, but most likely not the same one... they made a few for the movie...

By “same” I mean they might have reached out to the owners and used the car for their design. I can’t imagine they would copy such an iconic custom design identically for all the prop cars without having an original to work off of.
I hope the corvette owners are getting some royalty for their car’s design being used.

Maybe not royalties, but probably a good check for its use...

Replicas of it. I was a precision driver at fast 8 Cleveland last summer and there were three on set.
