    In October an independent movie producer is making a film centered around the rockabilly scene. In some of the scenes they need some cars and they need one car to be featured throughout the film. It will be filmed in Los Angeles so you need to be local to LA. If you are interested, please email a photo of your car to Moses Park [email protected]

    <HR style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #e5e5e5; COLOR: #e5e5e5" SIZE=1><!-- / icon and title --><!-- message -->Having worked in the business, several of my cars have been used in commercials, videos, ect. I've brought hundreds of cars onto sets over the years but a word of caution to those who loan their cars out. Its just another rental to the production crew, not a prized vintage vehicle to them and damage can occur. You should always be on set at all times with it as they will do things you wouldn't allow otherwise. Cars I was in charge of have been wrecked by "professional stunt drivers" accidentally, had headliners burned by lights placed on seats, blown head gaskets from beating on the car, damage to paint from tool belts & camera mounts and people standing on cars. These things happened in a split second and I was hawking the cars every moment. Stuff does and will happen. While production does have insurance to cover such events, some of the smaller film companies may not be as well funded and your car insurance will be void being your vehicle was "for hire". Something to keep in mind and check their insurance policy first.

    I'll do it for free. But you'll have to pay for me and my car to come out.

    Oh also you'll have to pay to finish my car.

    No? Why? Aw man, c'mon...

    Well it's maybe better than a hotmail account (though not much).
    Hell getting your own website name and hosting with unlimited email accounts is $130/yr or less, I've got three of them and their just for my hobbies !!
    (Here's one - www.lakeboon.com )

    How can a businessman not have even one?
