Music video... muscle cars wanted!

[rossdetours]

Hi,

I represent Glasgow rock band, The Detours. The band are shooting a new music video that will feature a scene shot at night in an abandoned factory car park (old Motorola/Freescale unit in East Kilbride near Glasgow) It’s this Sunday, 15th July at approx. 8pm.

The scene is a street fight between two MMA guys in an area made from two lines of muscle cars with their lights facing into each other and crowds of people (also looking for extras if anyone wants to get involved).

I'm looking for muscle cars to feature in the video. They will play a big part so it’s chance to get your pride and joy on TV…

The video will be on major music channels when it's done, the last video the band released did really well:

Any help/suggestions would be great. Also, I have checked that it is okay to post this with Paul Garlick. This is not a generic advert.

Thanks in advance,

Ross Neilson

Shame I am too far away as I would have been up for it.

[rossdetours]

[paulqv]

what do you mean muscle cars? American ??

Got old .muscle cars' Depends on what is needed as old italain sttuff and sitting idling or with lights on for long periods not easy

Paul

[johnycarrera]

Go on Paul, bring the Countach, I've text Barry to bring his white 360, I'll bring a set of jump leads

Don't think a thunderous V12 would be required during the music

[rossdetours]

Ideally American muscle... mustang, charger, chevelle etc but I know not everyone owns such a things so there is a couple of Ferraris/Porsches too.

The cars would just be sitting in two lines facing each other with lights on - they don't need to be idling but that's dependant on the battery I suppose. If idling or leaving lights on was a problem then the video team will work round it; wide shots first then shoot close ups that maybe don't need the cars in the shot... that kinda thing.

John.

[rossdetours]

Yeah man, the more the merrier... F430 is always of interest! haha

[steelej]

John.

Ross can you post up the actual address in EK please?

[rossdetours]

Yup it's

Colvilles Road East Kilbride, Glasgow, South Lanarkshire G75 0TG

You can see it on a map here... http://bit.ly/LOhvuR

At the moment the rough time for it is 6pm but I will be able to confirm on Friday exactly when we'll need the cars on site.

Cheers

Muscle cars so Im guessing old school, preferably got that Happy Days american hot rod look to them. Theres someone on here from Glasgow or near to with a Plymouth Prowler, you may want to also look at some Cobra owners in the Classic section, that may help.

Theres a chap in Renfrew who use to run an American Car Sales place in Tradeston. Still got American cars as far as i gather, could check with him, possibly a mustang or so.

I reckon if you push it on here and search about, you'll defo get what your after

the Tuscan will be in EK on Sunday, could pop round if it it's of use, not really muscle though

It would be great if you could pop round, we're hopefully going to have a good few muscle cars so the likes of a Tuscan will be nice to get some variety into the mix too!

MattyMouse33 - cheers for the advice, I'll certainly have a wee scout around and see what I can drum up!

[scotty_d]

If it was the weekend after i could have brought some British muscle over if needed
