If you’ve got lots of cash – and like the idea of a car that fixes its own parking-lot dents – then Mecum Auctions has a deal for you. The 1958 Plymouth Fury from the movie Christine is crossing the block on January 10 at the company’s auction in Kissimmee, Florida.

The car was one of several Plymouths used in the 1983 film, directed by John Carpenter. It was based on a novel by Stephen King, about a car seemingly possessed by evil.

Other Plymouths were wrecked for the movie, while this pristine Christine was used primarily for “beauty shots.” When filming wrapped up, it was the centerpiece of a promotional sweepstakes for the movie. Out of 40,000 entries, a winning ticket for the car was drawn on television on New Year’s Eve and she went to a new owner.
