There's actually two movies. Death Proof and Planet Terror. They're distributed together as Grindhouse.

An homage to exploitation B-movie thrillers that combines two feature-length segments into one double-bill designed to replicate the grind house theatergoing experience of the 70s and 80s. In "Death Proof," a psycho named Stuntman Mike (Kurt Russell) stalks and kills beautiful women with his car. In "Planet Terror," a small-town sheriffs' department has to deal with an outbreak of murderous, infected people called "sickos." A gun-legged woman named Cherry (Rose McGowan) and her martial arts-wielding partner (Freddy Rodriguez) take on the zombie army. The two films will be fused together by fake movie trailers.

There was some photos on web of what was left on stunt Challenger used. Someone also claimed it was sold to Finland. I saw it listed on website of company that sells US cars mostly to Finns, but it's been removed from their web since.
