Mad Max 4!!!

[Cabbage]

Went to the pub last night and got into a conversation with a bloke who said he was working on Mad Max 4. I thought he was full of it until he showed me some footage from his iphone that showed a metal finished xb coupe with a massive blower and jacked up rear end driving around what looked to be a parking lot.

A quizzed him a bit further as he was well under the weather. He told me the following:

The movie is being shot out at Broken Hill and an English actor whose last name is Harley I think is playing Max. They have 6 Coupe's 4 of which will be finished in metal as the story in the movie goes there is no more paint left in the world and as there is no water, so metal doesn't rust. (Thats what he told me). The story will start out with a coupe done up like the original. Mel Gibson will not be making a cameo.

I said to the bloke these Coupes were rare it would be a shame to trash them and they must have been expensive to buy 6. He said they have $250 million to spend and that wasn't a problem. $250 million will go a long way in Broken Hill I would think.

He showed me a couple of other pictures of vehicles to be used in film one was a 30's Ford style hot rod with twin blowers on it (his words) and two stripped down trucks that looked like tripped down airport trucks.

Mad Max is one of my favourite films I hope they don't screw 4 up and I hope they treat the Coupes with some love.
