Two Model A cars from Road to Perdition were purchased and stored on display
in a Motel in Gillette Wyoming. I don't know if they are still there, but I saw them about 15 years ago. Both had the original engines removed and Pinto engine and transmissions added. The display said this was done so the movie stars could drive them easier.
