Baker then sold the Capri to Bob Cullinane, who repainted it black with fading red to yellow graphics. This would have been around 1982. Cullinane then sold it to Brian Friend, who painted it a couple more times. Friend raced it for a few seasons, then decided to give the car away in a raffle, charging $200 per ticket. Just after the car went to its new owner, a production company approached Friend wanting to use the car in a movie for a chase scene. He put them on to the new owner, but they asked if he'd oversee the car throughout filming, as they were having trouble driving it. The winner of the raffle sold the car to the production company for $20,000, with the right to purchase it back after filming, which he did, for $8,000.
