That one is interesting. I suppose, that they took footage of real weapons test, probably 20-30mm autocannon.

Why they shoot up the limo? God knows.

Wow... they did a solid job destructing it beyond recognition! [:kiki] I'm not even sure if that was a six door or not... Based on the overall layout (or what's left of it), I think this was a conversion by Phaeton Coach of Dallas, Texas.

^When I realised, that scene may be filmed "for real", I remembered this legend: https://www.thevintagenews.com/2018/07/13/presidential-cars/

It's stock footage from the 1986 movie "Band of the Hand". The same footage was used in the movie "Cold Heat".

Found it!
You know, it's turns out to be funny. Because limo was supposed to be shot with Vulcan rotary cannon.

So at least they were really trying to imitate 20mm damage. And some how did a good job.

Me too! :) This once was a Phaeton Formal Limousine:

It was indeed coachbuilt by the company I suspected, but back in 1974 they were still trading as Eagle Coach Co., Dallas, Texas (not to confuse with the other Eagle Coach Co. in Amelia, Ohio, who entered the limousine and funeral car business in 1981). Eagle Coach of Dallas (1972-77, later Phaeton Coach Corp. 1977-82) offered a wide range of conversions mainly on Lincoln, but also on Rolls-Royce, Cadillac, Imperial or Volkswagen chassis.
