I haven't heard of that flick before, but if there's a Slick & Jennifer Lopez in it, it's gotta be worth watching.

Saw a NAPA commercial last night on TLC with a performance parts theme. They were showing drag racing and one of the racers was a white Slick.

I thought the one in the NAPA commercials was the one from that "Pinks" show, that I don't get to see, (don't have that channel) that comes up in the forum every 3 months or so.

Guys we just bought this exact truck! I can't fricking believe it!!!!

I met this old guy a year ago at a lil swap near my place. He liked my crewlcab and says I have an old merc that was in a Robert Redford movie. He gave me his number and told me to call if I was interested. I called him a while ago and we just couldn't get a time where both of us could meet up. And plus he lives in a place where its easier to get to by boat cuz his driveway is krazy! So anyways we struck a deal on saturday and we went and got it monday. I just finished watching the movie and sure enough its the truck!!!

Heres a shot of it as we were picking it up. I'll get some better ones in the morning.

That right there is pretty cool! Much better than saying, "Hey, this is the truck that was used in Brokeback Mountain!"

For real? The exact same truck? That would be way cool !! This may be our first Slick "MovieStar" !!

Heres the moviecar link

Way to go Shiny, good find!

Shiny · Post by **Shiny** » June 10, 2009, 9:44 am

Well look at the pics and you tell me if they're the same. I'll get some better shots of it today for ya'll. The guy we got it from told me that he wasn't allowed to advertise that it was in the movie to try and increase the sale price, doesn't mean I can't

It was kinda crazy watching the movie and seeing our truck in it! And Jennifer Lopez drove it too, maybe I'll never wash the seat eh

That has to be the same truck - the grille and bumper damage is the same!

Cool! A movie star slick! Can I have your truck's autograph??

Are you going to keep it or sell it with the Jennifer Lopez twist?

Gnant · Post by **Gnant** » June 10, 2009, 11:37 am

Sure looks like the same truck to me. How did the P.O. say he happened across it?

Same mirrors also.

Talk about nice tailgate..

Can you post a "scratch and sniff" photo of the seat..

That was a pretty good flick.. The best part is when Robert Redford kicked the crap out of the X-husband, then they show Morgan Freeman standing ready with a big 'ol revolver

Gary Seymour · Post by **Gary Seymour** » June 10, 2009, 7:20 pm

Wow! You've jarred my memory. I saw the movie too. One of those guys had gotten attacked by a bear, right? That was a good flick!
