4 of my cars were in this movie thought i would share the poster .....hope this is acceptable, the 56 gasser and my 27 get blown up.....on film not in real life.... any how thats my gasser and the chop top f100 in this pic

 

Very cool, how about posting some pics of them in your driveway so we can check them out. Kinda hard to see them on the poster.

 

thanks they have been in here before so i did not want to bore anyone

 

almost for got the 52...............the custom was not in the movie , just had a side by side of the chop top

 

well done!

 

So, tell us about the movie experience. How did you get involved, how were your cars treated, etc ?

one of my cars was in a movie once, filmed by a Alabama state trooper!!!lol true...

 

well the cars got hammered, we were at el mirage where the dust is powder, this was low budget to help freinds, they gave me the 74 nova and a part in the movie for payment...it was hell, but looking back, it was fun i will do another if this one goes...it comes out in september...if you go see it i am the map maker lol...google it, there is a good trailer for it...

 

here is a scene of the truck full of gypsy's

 

Ok so I watched the trailer on YouTube. It's defiantly a movie I will be watching . Looks wild to see your 56 rolling in the desert. Sweet deal nice rides

 

thanks

 

Could you post a link?

 

I worked at the shop in Florida that supplied the Cadillacs for the movie "Coupe De Ville"

 

Cool deal, man ... Yeah, it gets a bit dusty out there, eh?

 

Now I'm gonna havta see the movie.

and I worked at a shop that did the Cadillacs for Fandango, with Kevin Costner

 

I hope you can say you put the custom front end on that Caddy---one of the funniest parts to a movie ever!!

 

That's pretty cool to get your cars used in a movie! Congrats!

 

That's very cool!

 

No, we didn't. The studio guys did that. The producer wanted 5 identical cars, all running, all with new upholstery, new batteries, tires, etc. The guy brought us a cap off of a tube of lip balm and said that was the color he wanted. When they were done, he sent a car carrier to pick them up. I was at Warner Brothers a week later and saw the cars. One had the roof and the entire front clip and frame cut off. It was on a trailer, set up for process shots. The hacked off stuff was in a pile. The brand new tires and battery were MIA. Another had the front clip removed, certainly for the International Harvester gag. I imagine they were all scrapped after the film was in the can.

 

ok so here is where it is opening this Friday.....my 56 rolls and crashes and my 27 gets blown up....i have enclosed a scene of my 52 the beaver liquor, sitting in frt of the thirsty beaver, the sign says featuring the beaver girls lol check out the trailer

Making movies = Hurry up and wait. I been on a couple of sets, kind of changes how you watch films and TV, but a good experience. Would be cool to get a car in one, for sure!

 

I just watched this movie and it was amazing. Well done!

 

thanks, just bought the movie at walmart

 

I just added it to my Netflix DVD que. I will watch it this weekend.

Well, finally received the movie from Netflix. Took FOREVER! Must have very few copies. It was actually a pretty cool movie, and was actually filmed and produced well. I recommend it!

 

The trailer looked surprisingly well done, to be honest, I was thinking this was some half way done move but it actually looks very watchable.

For a minute I thought that one chick was Sandra Bullock...... Gonna have to find it and watch the whole thing.

I'll look for it too. I'm wondering how that '56 survived? I gots to know.

 

I bought a DVD on ebay. surprised to see them for sale and cheap, too.
