Some of you might have read my earlier post about the possible fate of one of the Raiders chase trucks. My theory was based on the idea that 2 trucks were used to film the chase sequence and that both survived the film. One ended up at Disneyland in California. The fate of the second is a mystery. One of my old friends, who worked as an extra on The Dirty Dozen: The Fatal Mission tv movie, gave me a possible lead on the 2nd truck. He said a special effects man on the set told him a surviving truck from Raiders was destroyed in the movie’s explosive climax. After having reviewed the film, it is very clear that the 5 troop trucks destroyed in the impressive end sequence are definitely not the same as any of the trucks from Raiders. It was a nice theory that just didn’t hold water.
