|
|
So they have been filming near my office for the last few weeks. I thought I saw this out of the corner of my eye about a week ago, but hey who puts our little obscure sports car in a feature film.
Well this morning on my way to work I noticed that an entire street was lined with old cars ranging from 70's Lincolns and Mustangs to a VW squareback and there is was again, a dark brown 931. The film is based in the early 80’s from what I can tell by the cars that were there, or someone didn’t do their home work on the 931 and it is a late 70’s film. They are all badged with special parking permits as film cars to keep the meter maids away.
I will try to ask one of the security guards what the name of the film is. |
