[6pack] Catalog fame for the TR250

[Andrew Packard]

Back in the winter here in Northern California, a production company  
from Utah contacted our local club, Triumph Travelers, looking for a  
Triumph, specifically a TR4 or Spitfire, for a photo shoot.  I  
responded with a couple pictures, they asked some questions about  
which wheels I could use and does my backlight come off and they  
agreed to use my car.  I was added to their insurance policy, they  
sent me $500 on the Thursday before the Monday shoot and I was  
committed at that time.  The shoot location was in Carmel Valley, CA  
(inland from Carmel-by-the-Sea where Clint Eastwood was mayor) at a  
country estate.  A club friend came along to see the production and  
help with the car.   The shoot day was a light to medium steady rain  
all day.  Here's a link to my behind the scene pics.  http://www.flickr.com/photos/adpackard/sets/72157619913582823/ 
    We took two scenes worth of shots and one pic was chosen from each  
scene.  They provided lunch and we were out of there by 1:00.  I've  
listed my car on a movie/tv site but no response from that source.   
When I get the hard copies of the catalog, I'll have something nice to  
put on the car wall in my home office.
