Bud- Excellent 8X10s.

I need to score one of the Paradise Road photos for my garage. Right now I just have all my 1/18th diecasts in there. Probably my #1 favorite movie next to Showgirls.

pretty sure the 55 was a tribute car..it was cool but I did not notice the camera mounts hanging out so I did not snap any pics...somewhere on this board we discussed the cars in length last year..

My guess would be it was a tribute car as well. (pics would be NICE though

).. Far as I know the REAL 55 Chevy that was in the movie is still owned by a guy in MD and is personalized to his taste as a show car. The sister car to that (the camara mount car) is for the most part restored back to the way it appeared in Two Lane Blacktop. (both cars were used in TLB years before American Graffitti was filmed). Likely the 3rd and 4th 55 Chevys used in Graff are loooong since junked. (1 was rolled and the other was burned in the movie)

yea the pics are awsome..wish they were bigger..note the shot of them lined up..you can tell that was take two..??? there is nice set of posi tracks from the coupe...I didnt catch the tracks until I had the photo at home..really cool stuff...Ed there was a mob of people around the area and when I saw it was not the real car I saved the film for more important stuff....like "She Devil"
