Yup, I saw that a couple of years ago. That's cool that somebody went out of their way to find the car and then save it. Sweet looking car too!

Nice! I remember when I first saw that movie when I was like 5 and still watch it every now and then. I wonder how many owners it had since the movie was made. I can't believe they let it go like that, but it's nice to see that they fixed it back up.
