The State’s expert says any mid-’60s GM could have laid down those two tire marks outside the convenience store, so the defendants’ metallic-mint convertible is as good as a confession. Settled fact, or is there something in the record?
The photographs and expert testimony point to a different car.
The scene photographs show two parallel burn marks, equal in length and equal in intensity Fictional demo citation A0064, lines 112 through 118, source tire mark analysis.. Equal marks mean both rear wheels were driving. That requires a limited-slip differential — positraction — and positraction was not available on the defendants’ 1964 Buick Skylark Fictional demo citation A0071, line 23, source expert testimony..
The tire marks continue over a curb cut without a break. A solid-axle car cannot do that; the left tire lifts and the mark breaks. Independent rear suspension, or it did not happen Fictional demo citation A0071, lines 88 through 96, source expert testimony..
The drivetrain comparison lists two GM cars from that period with both features: the Corvette — which no eyewitness mistakes for a Skylark — and the 1963 Pontiac Tempest Fictional demo citation A0112, line 14, source GM drivetrain matrix.. Same body length, same convertible top, same metallic-mint green in every witness photograph Fictional demo citation A0130, lines 7 through 9, source witness photo index..
On this record, the tire marks match the Tempest, not the defendants’ Skylark.
