No, Chevy's are "Like a Rock", some Bondo on the bullet holes, new windows, a detail job and it will be fine.

Glad those Federales are exterminating cartel like the vermin they are. Car looks just like Bonnie & Clydes death car. Don't take chances, just open up with everything you got:

Again, Hollywood changes actual events to match what they feel is a more dramatic scene. In the real event, they were both shot inside the car with bullets going through both people and out the opposite door. Bonnie took so many bullets to the face that her nose was almost torn off. But we must sacrifice TRUTH for a dramatic moment in Hollywood's estimation.

"Shoot where the bullet holes won't show!"

Bonnie and/or Clyde's brains were scattered on the front seat in the real shooting. Your point is a good one, even in the 1969 violent Sam Peckinpaugh movie The Wild Bunch you get at most a wall splattered with blood, never blood, brains and skull. In major Hollyweird movies, I can't think of a scene before "I shot Marvin in the face" in Pulp Fiction where brains are splattered around. Our beloved Documenting Reality crowd would have loved to see Faye Dunaway's skull blown apart in slow motion in the original 1967 movie, but most paying movie customers prefer a relatively romantic / idealized death scene (!) with Bonnie doing a sexy jitterbug to the penetrating bullets and Clyde dying without it tousling his perfect hair and makeup.

BTW, the owner of the car, an old lady, picked it up at the police station and drove it home with Bonnie & Clydes blood and brains on the front seats. It was still driveable, a testament to accurate police marksmanship in my humble opinion...
