    under "goofs" they say the cars built by the fictional car company "emery" say plymouth in the back window.
    i never saw it but if Jimmy stewart is in it, it is probably good.

    Around 1970, Strother MacMinn alerted Alex Tremulis to the car sitting in an Acton, CA roadside tourist trap. Tremulis checked it out due to its Cord L-29 drivetrain. It's currently being restored in Arizona. Just Google "Thunderbowl Comet" and "Speed", you'll find the full story on its past, present and future... thunderbowl comet.jpg
