I saw the comercial last night.  Really wasn't paying much attention until I spotted the Cuda.....Then it hit me where I had seen the thread.   Great.  Now I can look forward to comercials again.   Congrats........ :2thumbs: :2thumbs: :2thumbs:

Congrats, well deserving, your car is a real looker.

May I ask what kind of scratch they give you for that?  Or is it all for fame and notoriety, of which I'd be fine with.  :picture:

When the film company approached me they told me that they had another car in mind but that person wanted $1000.00 for 4 hours of time with his car which was a bit high for the commercial budget. I told them I would take far less just to have the car in the commercial and we settled on $250.00. I would have done it for nothing had it came down to it! They ended up paying me an additional $300 when it was done do some damage to the header panel (two minor paint chips). Still a great expirence!!

That has to be the coolest feeling of all, seeing your car on the tele!  Well, maybe next to driving it!

That's cool, it's $250 you didn't have before and got just for the fact you own such a sweet ride.  :thumbsup:

Hold tight guys. I've e-mailed the film company a couple of times now to make sure they send me a copy. My wife has seen it a few times now and I have yet to see it for myself. :clueless: It seems that it is airing mostly in the morning. Trust me I'm as eagar as anyone to finally see it!!!

 :popcorn: Any word on posting a copy of the video?  Does the commercial only air on Speed?  I've been looking but have not seen it yet.
