Super :cool: It is an honor to do something like this!!! My Orange '74 Coupe is the car shown as the "year example" in the photos in the back of "The Black Book".

Hey Everyone!
Thanks for the good words! I just think it's cool that they picked a C3, and that I could be there to represent the Forum.


I like the license plate, "drive safely" .... :) MJ

have to try this... does the forum now automatically shrink pics?
The "drive safely" license was stuck on over my license using some kind of black sticky putty material.....kinda funny though! :D
That's pretty cool if the new forum automatically shinks the pictures. Does anyone know about this feature?


that is sweeet! i hope they dont quiet those pipes!
They actually recorded the sound of the sidepipes.......I don't know whether that will make it into the final commercial, though.


can I get your Vette to autograph an 8X10 Glossy for me?
How about if I leave some black tire marks on a photo, and then include some oil and power steering drippings?? :lol:


I think we'll have to add you to the '70 Registry "Notable Corvettes" page. Would that be OK?
Hey Juliet, that would be very cool!! It would be an honor to have a spot on the Registry's Notable page!

Hmmmmm......I think the horse rental business pays much better than cars. Although, the transport driver said that I got a pretty good fee as far as other cars go. He said that exotics rent by the hour, for example a Porsche TT runs about $350/hr., :crazy: but my car made nowhere near that, or what the horse did!

You need to have a caption contest with the second one. With the old guy and the cane on the left.


"Dammit, I was suppose to drive thru for my Viagra." :lol: :lol:

"Yep, (looking over at the kid to his left) I had one of them there Corvettes when they made them out of METAL" :crazy: :crazy: :lol: :lol:

Thats Great! Maybe somebody with good computer skills and hardware can put the film to .mov or some other computer videoclip format so everybody can see the add, also here in Europe... :cheers:

A company that supplies cars, motorcycles, trucks, etc. to the film/video/commercial industry saw my car at a local car show (Amgen), and wanted to know if I was interested in having my car used in a shoot.
Did they pay for it ? :cheers:

Your car is beautiful. I don't know if the commercial will be shown in the NYC area but I'll keep an eye out for it.
You're right, the filming process is quite an experience. About two years ago I was at a cruise in when someone started taking pictures of my red 69 coupe, then he told me he was scouting cars for a movie. A few months later I spent an entire day on the set of the Drew Barrymore movie "Riding in Cars With Boys" My car is on screen for about 10 seconds during the kid's birthday party scene. My only concern was when the prop man told me the actor who would be driving the car (I forget his name), didn't know how to drive stick. I gave him a quick lesson and said as long as we weren't going to recreate the chase scene from "Bullit" he would be ok.

Oh yes, they did!!

Plus, it sounds like we have another movie star on the forum. 6t9l4t6 (Michael), the next time I watch "Riding in Cars with Boys" I'll look for your car......I know exactly which scene you're talking about. :cheers:

So Cool! Ask if the commercial will be regional (local) or national so we know who should watch for it. Beautiful Shark!
