Skid ◊ 2023-02-10 05:17	Although it looks black in the movie, based on the light blue interior this car was most likely Nightmist Blue, a very attractive dark metallic blue. It appears to have been equipped fairly typically for a Galaxie 500 of the time period: 390 V8 engine, column-shift automatic, top-option "simulated mag" wheel covers, and air conditioning (which must have been useful in the Texas summer).
