I was in this. Interesting experience.


I supplied two of the vintage cars for this film and drove one of them(my brother drove the second). I also arranged for the police car that was used. I had hoped for a credit for that but it didn't happen. Oh well...
Anyway, it was neat to see the process of filming being done. A lot of hurry-up-and-wait. A nice lunch was served to cast and crew onsite.
A couple years later I got a packet in the mail with a couple tickets to a screening in one of the Atlantic City casinos. Then a few more years later I bought a copy on DVD. My scene is about 12 minutes in. I drive through in my 1966 Fury, you can hear the car very well and see my long hair as I Pass the house. My brother, driving my 1969 Dart, passes by as well but his bit was close-upped so far in that it was just a flash of yellow in front of the camera. The car can be seen in the driveway across the street in another scene or two.
I remember having high hopes that this involvement would propel me into the big-time mooovie bidness, supplying vehicles and maybe even getting some speaking roles one day.
Alas, reality reared its' ugly head and nothing came of it.
