RE: [BaadAssGremlins] James Bond Hornet SUPPOSEDLY on ebay????

["John W Rosa" <JohnRosa@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Also- Five of the six were 360/Autos (the Iowa car is one of these).
Only ONE had a six and it was the heavily-altered corkscrew jump car 
(now on display in Britain).

This eBay thing is simply the same model year and color...but it is 
NOT one of the film cars.

There was six Bond Hornets used. Joe is correct, the only one in the US
is
in Iowa, the others left behind in Bangkok. A few years ago (this is
mentioned on my site somewhere) I was approached by Kristian Koos of
Corgi
Toys who wanted to find a Hornet hatchback to take photos of as they
were
doing a Bond Series of vehicles, and needed a hatchback for pix to get
details right.

The Bond car (by Corgi) is 1:43;rd scale and like all their products, is
excellent quality. I put them in touch with a buddy in Chicago, where
they
are located, who then contacted the fellow in Iowa who has that one Bond
car
from filming. Needless to say he was elated and drove it to Chicago for
extensive photographs by Corgi. I ended up getting a few boxes of Corgi
toys
for my small effort!

The Bond Hornets also have a metal dash plaque (it is my understanding
this
was required by Cambodian government) for filming purposes; this red
Iowa
car still has it's plaque, and was featured in AMO and a few other
magazines.
