JO'S STORMCHASER 1982 JEEP PICKUP

Twister
Starring Helen Hunt
Warner Brothers 1996

Twister, starring Academy Award winning actress Helen Hunt, was a film about meteorologists who want to learn as much as they can about tornados. To do this, they must get inside of the tornado and launch "Dorothy," a data collecting instrument. A tough vehicle is needed to carry "Dorothy" to the tornados, and this Jeep pickup was perfect. That is until it was destroyed by a tornado during the making of the movie! Three trucks were used to film these scenes, and this is the only one that has survived.

This is 1 of 3 used during filming
Fully Documented
Built by Roy Landivier of Waukomis, OK
The other two were destroyed
The Studio kept a 1984 model
Most of the filming of Jo's Jeep was done with this truck
