  • Car buffs and movie buffs

    Okay, this a long shot, but here goes.

    I saw a movie (at least 10 years ago, could have been longer) that was based in the south (I'm almost sure of it).

    There was a guy in the movie that had a FLAT BLACK Camaro (i'm almost 100% certain is was a Camaro). He "painted it himself" in the movie. I remember one of the scenes, his father was speaking to someone in the house, while the father was having a drink, and he was talking about the kid and him doing the work to the Camaro.

    I for the life of me can't remember,

    A; What the movie was called.
    B; What it was about.
    C; What year the car was.


    ANYONE with information on this, let me know.

    Too bad you're not talking about "Better off Dead." That was an awesome movie with a bitching black first generation Camaro. And, of course, it wasn't based in the south. So I guess I was no help at all.

      Was it midnight in the garden of good and evil with Kevin Spacy?

        Any more details on plot, or any of the actors?

          You may be right, because I think Jude Law was the one who owned the Camaro.

          Now I've got to find pictures of the Camaro.

            I'm nearly 100% that was the movie, I just can't find the Camaro pictures. I remember how Kevin Spacey looked too, I just couldn't place that it was him.

                I want a Camaro. I want one like the movie. I guess in the car world, from what the guys at work tell me, Camaros are like mass produced, and like there's a lot, and they don't hole their value, and I can get one cheap, and if I say and again, that's 5 word "and" without counting that one.

                  Did it have Sean Penn and Chris Walken in it? I seem to remember a Camaro in "At Close Range".

                    No it had Spacey, and John Cusack. Trippy movie, awesome car. '68 camaros
                    do rip hard. At Close Range is a great flick. That's one you buy for the collection.

                            Go to imdb.com and type in Kevein Spacey and it will list all the movies he played in, and see if the movie your talking about is listed.

                            I personally do not care how it was built as long as it is a good playing/sounding instrument.

                            Yes, there's a bee in the pudding.
