A Bay City beauty has arrived in Chicago and is being prepped for her big-screen debut opposite Johnny Depp.
A 1935 Hudson Terraplane, purchased from the Bay City Motor Company, left town earlier this month and is being overhauled for use in the film "Public Enemies," with shooting set to begin March 10.
The car will lose her burgundy hues and be painted black and tan to emulate the Depression-era vehicle that was used as a getaway car by the legendary gangster John Dillinger, said David F. Cotten, managing partner of the motor company.
The car features a 330-horsepower engine and three-speed manual transmission with overdrive. The original instruments include a speedometer that goes up to 100 mph, a clock and an a.m. radio.
The Universal Studio's production is tentatively set for a 2009 release and will feature the antics of Dillinger, Babyface Nelson and Pretty Boy Floyd.
