At least 2 dozen classic Chevys burned to a crisp on the set of an HBO production
The fire is still under investigation, and it’s not yet know what started it or why is spread so thoroughly across the lot. The series,, starring Mark Ruffalo, Melissa Leo, Rosie O’Donnell, and Juliette Lewis, has temporarily halted production in the wake of the fire.
There were a total of at least 50 vehicles on the painstakingly replicated auto dealer set, in addition to the classic sportscars. They were gathered for the production by automotive journalist Jamie Kitman,’s New York bureau chief. Kitman’s business, Octane Film Cars, organizes vehicles from enthusiast owners and private collections for film, television, and other media productions, in addition to drawing from his own collection of dozens of vintage cars.
. He described at the time the painstaking work he and the production teams go through to ensure historical accuracy in the productions. “For instance, there were no ’79 LTD’s in ’69, and you can’t have a big-bumper police car in 1965,” he told me at the time, noting that his collection, and the needs of most productions, reflects reality, not aspirational visions with lots of Ferraris and Porsches.
