According to people on the set, after the mishap when a driver missed a mark and caused "Eleanor" to hit a real light post at 85 mph, the first thing that H.B. Halicki said when he regained consciousness was, "Did we get coverage?"
This 97-minute movie contains 93 car crashes.
The scene in which a train derailment is observed in the film was not part of the original shooting script but is in fact an actual train that derailed; when the director heard about this he wanted to incorporate it into the film.
The final "big jump" went 30 feet high and cleared 128 feet; Halicki suffered a compressed spine in the landing.
