We shall see you next year. I plan to do it again. I came down with my friends who have 4th Gen Celicas. They go every year and this was my first.

 

You have done an amazing job on your truck! Congratulations!

 

I wanted to bring this thread back because I know a lot of people have viewed and followed this thread. I have made some progress ....

Can anyone point me to a place that sells dash covers for our truck? I have something I'd like to keep protected!!!!





This is me and Claudia Wells. Yes, Jennifer Parker from Back To The Future part 1!




This is what I want to protect




I've been busy to say the least:

I have plenty of more ?'s coming up but lets start at this

I have a black dash cover that I took out of my 88 when I recovered the dash that I will give you but it has a small crack in it from when I removed it. Cool stuff for sure !!
Congrats.

suweet!

 

Nice, that's really cool that you met "Jennifer" and took pic. next to your truck.

 

Thanks! I'll be meeting her again for some small filming stuff in the next week or 2 and hopefully I'll have the chance to meet the rest of the cast in October. Maybe more signatures!!!




Thanks man!

Do you have a pic, so I can get an idea of what this cover looks like? In addition, i'll be spraying a light clear coat over the signature soon to preserve it's awesomeness.

 

meet the rest of the cast? is your truck in a secret BTTF4 movie?

 

Lol, no. Robert Zemeckis already promised that there will not be a BTTF 4 as long as he breathes.

For all you old folks out there (sigh) .... this year marks the 30th anniversary since the movie debuted so there is all sorts of events going on. Especially this October because thats when Marty went into the future.

There is a chance of me and the truck being part of that event.

 

Hey, I met you at ToyotaFest this year. I was the brown guy from NYC talking to you about the truck. You also let me sit in it. lol Thank you for that, was the highlight of my entire time at the show. I just picked up an 87 Xtra Cab yesterday. Thinking if I should leave it alone or go with some BTTF inspired mods. lol

 

Whats up Man! Hope you been well. The excitement from you and everyone at the show was just surreal. I'll be making another trip down to LA for the JCCS in September. Congrats on the score! If you do anything to it, please post it up!

 

I am amazed what these people at the shop can do. During my trip i've acquired some scratches







They were able to "buff" them out

 

Sweet rig! I just bought a 85 and plan to restore to the first movie specs!

 

Welcome to the group brother! Love to see before and after pics.

These past few months I've been busy.

Japanese Classic Car Show September 2015

http://japanesenostalgiccar.com/2015...de-in-the-80s/

Made a trip back in October to shoot a promo for the 30th anniversary for BTTF


Then about 2 weeks later I went back down to LA to celebrate the 30th anniversary. It was crazy. 5 day event (I stayed for 3) and met so many fans from around the world. I've met some cast members as well.

Griffs gang from Part 2 (Darlene Vogel, Jason Scott Lee and Ricky Dean Logan.)
Dad chasing Marty out of his house Part 2 (alternate 1985) (Al White)
Mayor Goldie Wilson III (Don Fullilove)
Bar tender from part 3 (Matt Clark)

My truck was at the actual house filmed in the movie.

Here are some pics

San Francisco Auto Show







Now next week i'm heading back down to LA to do a Charity car show even in Van Nuys


Whew!!!!

 

After the group of almost 400 people at the Burger King on Day 3, we decided to make our own vid.

Wow!!! You are getting some great experiences with your truck. Looks like you are having a blast. Great job!!!

 

Thanks Terry!!!

I most certainly have, especially these past few weeks. Everything just dumped on me at once. CRAZY!

This has been one hell of a year!

I can't wait for the charity car show. Before I roll in Im gonna stop by Toys R Us and fill up the bed with toys for those kids in need. It will be an awesome tear-jerker experience.

 

Due to trying to preserve the signature on the dash I ended screwing up the whole thing.

By the good graces of the powers of the universe I was given a second chance. I had the opportunity to meet up with Claudia when I was in LA for JCCS and she happily re-autographed the truck. This time the glove box.

Makes it easier for when that opportunity comes where Michael J Fox is in town I can quickly unscrew that and have him autograph it.

Again. This year has been one hell of an adventure!!!!

 

Thats is too cool!! Just the experience! I'll keep you posted as mine is restored.

 

Wow, congrats! You got some great pics for a job well done.
