62imperial ◊ 2010-02-09 23:37	Update: I was helping Ray sort through some old photos and he has some taken of him and the car parked on the freeway between takes. Are the admins ok with behind-the scenes photos? If so I'll see if Ray will let me post them.
Ford_Guy ◊ 2010-02-09 23:49	We'd love to see them here. That's the sort of interesting stuff we look for here also. Go right ahead and post them, I'm sure the other administrators would agree. Just make sure they're the right size for this site, i.e., that the pictures aren't too big.
62imperial ◊ 2021-09-06 10:08	Only took eleven years , but here you go - three shots Ray took on location with the Caprice - note the license plate I mentioned, plus the broken or burnt-out high beam headlight on the driver's side which is visible on screen. I've looked for those other cars in the photos (Renault 5, Torino, Valiant, International stakebed, and red Chevy pickup), but they don't appear in the film; maybe crew vehicles?
