Just a wild thought but have you thought of contacting a movie production company (likely out of state though) to see if they'd be interested in it?
Thanks man. He's welcome to take a look. I haven't thought about movie stuff and really don't want to go through the trouble. I'd rather someone come here with $600 and drive away with all my Probe related stuff.

Been driving it to work. Finally feel comfortable getting the tail out and I'm selling it.

It felt good when I finally sold the Elm Green Beetle. But the price dropped $200/month for months and that really crippled the hopes and dreams I had for the Shantung Gold one.

I got about equal interest from signs in the windows, Craigslist and a website called thesamba.com. Hang in there.

I just replied to their post, and plugged EcoModder

I'm kind of humbled to have my car on there, whether or not people think it's a crack pipe.

How EcoModders get on Jalopnik:

If that's the case why is my car not on that site? I sent in a tip a year ago and nothing came of it .
