<P> Total production for the 1958 Plymouth Fury was only 5,303, and they were difficult to find and expensive to buy at the time . In addition, the real - life Furys only came in one color, "Buckskin Beige", seen on the other Furys on the assembly line during the initial scenes of the movie . The Fury also got anodized gold trim on the body and Fury script on the rear fender . In order to bypass the problem of obtaining the rare trim, the cars featured the more common Belvedere "Dartline" trim . Several vehicles were destroyed during filming, but most of the cars were Savoy and Belvedere models dressed to look like the Fury . At least one' 57 Savoy was used, its front end modified to look like a' 58 . </P> <P> Originally, Carpenter had not planned to film the car's regeneration scenes, but decided after the shoot had finished to include them . The shots of the car regenerating itself were shot in post-production and done using hydraulics . </P> <P> Of the twenty cars used in the film, only two still exist . One is a stunt vehicle with a manual transmission and now resides in the hands of a private California collector . The other vehicle was rescued from a junkyard and restored by collector Bill Gibson of Pensacola, Florida . </P> <P> Christine was released in North America on December 9, 1983, to 1,045 theaters . </P>
