Two Lane Blacktop on Turner Clasic
scummy replied to a topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
G,day , I remember reading somewhere a long time ago that the movie two lane black top ran out of money, so the big crash scene was not filmed so they went with the film burning up. The car sat around until another low budget film maker brought it and fixed it up a little bit and then presto , graffiti .Cheer's . -

G,day , mate that photo cracked me soon as i saw it ! You see there's an old saying in australia , "there's not enough room in here to swing a cat " so when i read the caption i could imagine the guy madly swingin the cat around which just sent me over the edge . I'm afraid i'm scared for life as i'm laughing now , thanks for the laugh man . Cheers .

G,day , farout , could not imagine hurtling down the salt flats at break neck speed in that huge thing , how scarey Cheers -
G,day , i'm sorry awbcrazy , i can't for the life of me workout how the drowned cat works into this subject are you saying we should all learn how to save cats ? Maybe i'm a dumb ozzie I remember a web forum in australia here that was real popular about a certain post war car roaming the deserts of australia, and then all of a sudden some people came and hid behind false names and started saying things, upsetting people, so others did the same back and now it seems its lost its attraction as i don't see many familiar names anymore . So lets ALL not let this place fall apart , we got a great place here lets keep it that way . Cheer's

G,day , When i was a young fella and worked in a workshop in the 70's , the detroit 8.71's were a sortof army pale green , and the cummins were a tan -bone colour . The closest colour i found for the detroits was humberol brush tin number 78 . It drys sortof satin finish . The cummins colour is again humbrol brush tin number 7 , it drys a gloss . Some of the smaller detroits were a light blue but mainly the one's i saw were the greeny colour . As i said that was in the mid 70's in australia . Cheer's scummy.
