I have a copy (very grainy), I'll bring it to the event Sunday
if you want to borrow it.
275LM? Well, I'd bet it's a Renault DCV or 7 instead. You
never see the car or driver, and the sound is more like a
high-revving 4 cyl IMHO. It was made by an impoverished
young filmmaker (famous, but I can't recall which one)
on a low budget.
Still very exciting...
