The car in Detroit is known as the Hero car, reported as the one that was used for long shot filming as opposed to an "in Car camera". Mcqueen would have driven both as there are outtakes of him getting into a roll bar equipped vehicle (stunt car).
The car in Detroit is also reported as being the car used in the door to door bashing in the final minutes of the chase scene.
According to various articles posted in the past week,the pass anger door had about 40 lbs of bondo as a result of repairs done by Warner Bros before selling it.
