We are shooting a film in Boston and picture cars is going to need a handful of 2003 or earlier vehicles that stunts can drive just as traffic on a 2-lane highway. Nothing dangerous or risky.
it's not my department but I figured I'd reach out to see if Anyone could use the $$$. It would work on the night of 9/8.
if there are any takers, I'll dig into the price and will get it as high as I can for a grmer.

Hmm, finding <2003 vehicles that don't look like they're about to return to the earth might be difficult that far north!
On the one hand a 1993 Ford Escort GT fits the bill, on the other hand, challenge graphics on it would not.
But I'm all the way up in Vermont. 92 Safari. Needs a bath. And this is the good side.
Y'all need an XJR? lol
Just grab a new 400Z. It's a 20-year-old chassis. 
Jeremy when you double for Affleck does he show you exactly how to hold the Dunkin' cup?

That's SNL DD video is hilarious. We had a guy at work that in the winter would smoke at a far out warehouse door like that.
My son might be interested. He has the grill installed now 
In reply to No Time :
Have him email me his contact info and a few pictures and info on the truck.
We are planning to have any vehicle procured this way inspected so let me know if there are any safety issues (brakes, structural rust, tires,...)
thisnis a little unusual but there aren't picture car warehouses out here like in la. So maybe it will work out and make him some money.
In reply to JG Pasterjak :
Hahahaha hilarious!

SNL does a great job of skewering Beantown berkeleyups:

He's out with friends tonight since he has tomorrow off. He graduated this year, he's 18 and working as a tech at the local ford dealer. Normally he has Sunday and Thursday's off, but I'm not sure about this week because of Labor Day.
I'll have him email you, but in the mean time the general info is it's a 1998 Ram 1500 that came up from Florida a year ago (so essentially zero rust).
It was treated with NHOU oil undercoating, so everything underneath is oily to touch, but the only real leak is the front main seal.
Everything is up to snuff for safety, it passed Mass safety inspection a couple months ago, and he replaced wheel bearings and a ball joint at that time.
As far as I know air conditioning and cruise control don't work right now, but otherwise everything else works.
2003 Taco?
I am about an hour from Boston.
In reply to preach (dudeist priest) :
Yessiree. I make no guarantees as it's not my department but send me an email with your info and the vehicle info (including a description of its safety-ness) and I'll pass it along. I will do what I can to get the most $$ for it for you!

When I see cars in period movies, they all look like they just rolled off the assembly line. I get it, everyone wants their baby to have a clean and polished on-screen appearance. No doubt requests by the director to throw dirt on them for a bit more realism goes unheeded.
In reply to jfryjfry :
So...what happens in a situation like this if your car gets damaged?

Insurance
When your production team is burning $8,000,000 per day, carrying a little insurance on a 20 year old car is a drop in the bucket.
Come film in NC. WInston Salem. Ive got a few you can use!

Holy crap get this into the movie in the background. Would be a nice little advertisement for GRM.
For full 2003 realism, you need a couple of riced out Civics playing tag through traffic.
