Mad Max Pursuit Special replica defected in QLD

The unit issued Rod a defect notice for the car’s protruding Weiand supercharger, as well as the movie-correct blue light mounted to the dash.

"It also had an exhaust hanging out the side of the vehicle, which again, exhaust pipes get hot,” said Senior Sergeant Shaune English of Calliope HWP to ABC News. “If someone brushes past that's a risk to people as well."

Rod was fined for driving a defective vehicle, and directed to get a new roadworthy certificate.
