The part where the guy turns cannibal on the mechanic may make a good movie...
b-grade sci-fi horror, all the young mechanics can drive Americans....
Maybe Tom can be the butcher and haul the bones off to burning man in the wagon at the end, har, har....

First, AMC content:  I sold a Rambler back seat to a guy in Los Angeles and delivered it to him.

He had a shop and a car lot where he repaired and sold nothing but used Saturns.  He said it was a good business.  He had several young mechanics that were trained to work on these cars and he could pick them up cheap in the LA area, fix them, or cannibalize them for parts, swap parts and sell them on his car lot out front and make a profit.
