Hi 
 
This is not as grand as the email subject suggests  - but it made me smile.
 
When I was asked if I would lend one of my cars for  a short film, I thought 
they meant the GT40 - but no, it was the Datsun 2000,  which the local 
film-makers decided was the ideal gangster's car ... not so sure  myself.   
 
They had the car all last weekend to shoot the  final scenes and the film is 
in the can. I've yet to see it but it will get its  first showing at a film 
festival in Nottingham soon. I'm told that there are  some nice pan shots 
across 
the Fairlady badge, grille etc. The final edit  will all be in black & white 
or sepia. To keep it in the family, my 17  year old son was was roped in to 
play a vicar! Should be interesting  ...
 
Cheers
 
Rob
