There was a orange and black 53-54 Stude and a pink 55 Ford with the room cut off in the movie, anybody here involved?

One of the guys in the earlier Rodreigez film, "Desperado" was driving a cool looking black thing that sorta looked like a truck cab with a trunk! You only see it for a brief moment when the guy steps out of it...but it's a curious old vehicle!
Rodreigez started his career with a very cool Indie film titled "El Mariachi". I've seen it a couple times, and would love to add it to my VHS or DVD collection! It is in Spanish, so you have to read the English dialouge at the bottom of the screen, but it's a fun film...especially considering that it was done on a shoestring budget using money obtained by giving blood and loaning himself out for medical studies! "Desperado" was a sorta high-buck remake of "El Mariachi". I'll probably go see "Once Upon A Time In Mexico" this afternoon!

I wish they'd have shown more of the stude, and i cringed when they rammed the ford into that LTD. On another note, I rented Identity (John Cusack, Amanda Pete) and theres a mulletmobile firebird ('78?) with the roof cut off in it.

Fathack...El Mariachi is a great movie, I'm a big fan of Robert Rodriguez. From Dusk
Til' Dawn is my fave of his though. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Just walked in from seeing "Once Upon a Time in Mexico"...
"El Mariachi" and "Desperado" were alot more fun to watch...this new movie features some of the same actors from Desperado playing different roles...and Super American Patriot Johnny Depp contributing a pretty lame role to the story as well! It was okay, but not as good as Robert's earlier films, in my opinion...it just lacked the "fun factor" of the first two!
Remember "Bedhead"? That was a gas...the short film that launched Robert's career!
