    Smokey15 So old that I use AARP bolts.

    I wonder what happened to the other '55 built for TLB. Two accounted for.

    1972Mach1 Just some M.M.O.G. guy.....

    SUPPOSEDLY, and I've seen the car, it's actually here in Missoula. If it isn't it, it's a dang good replica. The guy that owns the car is kind of a crook, but he does have some very, very high end cars, bikes, boats, and other toys. But I wouldn't trust him as far as I could throw him, and he's a fat one.....

    I really like me some TLB
    And I keep a copy of Dazed and Confused on my phone and look at it pretty regular. Really dig the Judge and melba toast.
    I haven't been able to get a good copy of HollyWood Knights but it is up there with Fast Times at Ridgemont high in my top five.


    Not a Movie but I really like Da Grump and his cigar rowing.


    I can fix it, my dad's a tv repair man and he has the ultimate set of tools, I can fix it.

    The TLB/ American Graffiti 55 was owned by the same guy who owns/owned Milner's Coupe. Any one know the significance of the license plate on Milner's coupe?

    Since nobody knows, realized or has seen the faux pa in Vanishing point. They changed the states around, they go from Colorado into Nevada then into Utah finally into Cali.

    The plate on Milner's coupe is THX-1138. The name of a movie Lucas directed in 71. The first movie he directed too

    The THX -1138 references a film/studio classroom that Lucas attended. It is referenced in most of his movies.
