    Them talking about the car being in a movie. Two of our 57s (around 1981 or so) were in a movie called "Crisis at Central High", about the integration of Central High School in Little Rock, Arkansas which happened in the late 1950s. Joanne Woodward was the main star. As a matter of fact, my wife and her sister were extras in the movie too. They took our two main 57s Chevys (I had to make some quick changes on mine...replace the hood, put stock wheels and tires on etc), painted them as Police Cars from the period, using black water-based paint promising the paint would not hurt them. Well, that was in one of the hottest summers we had ever had up to that time and the paint cooked on. Ruined the paint so they had to pay me to repaint them. No big deal because I was always doing something to those cars...engine changes, different colors, cams, rear gears, etc. Friends told me I need to put zippers on my engines, I had them out so often. :)

I found the visit to be absolutely fascinating and I learned quite a bit. Thank you again Chad & Jolene for taking us along on your journey, I really appreciate it and I am sure that everyone else does too.

    Qld is a great state but you need to come back again and do more of Aus.
    NSW and Victoria next time.
    Victoria is more similar to Canada but without the snow unless you go up in out mountains in Winter.
    Same sort of car culture in Vic and NSW , heck all over Aus.
    Enjoy the hospitality and your time here.
