the Clint Eastwood connection

went out to make a portrait of a local man who furnishes antique autos to movies and TV - most recently he supplied the vehicles for the new Clint Eastwood film Gran Torino - while the Torino was still out in L.A., he had the gangsta car and the old Ford pickup that were in the movie. The guy offered to take a picture of me in the truck, which Clint drove all the time in the movie....so, now i have sat in the very seat Mr. Eastwood sat in....bring on the fame!
