My first car was that same Camaro in white, and everything that went wrong with it in the movie (the smoke cloud and breaking down) are very reminisient of what I went throught with Lil' Delton.
When I heard a yellow version of him gonna be in this film, I became estatic for altought he broke down often, on several occasions even with fire, I loved that old hooptie.
I even got some extra BBs just to retool and paint.
Now I see this auction as I look at my primed airbrush and curse my lack of wealth as in a drunken state I can see me ruining this undoutebly priceless collectabile just to regain a piece of my past.
And when it all comes down to it, isn't that what adult collecting is all about.
Then again Lil' Delon only cost me $450(I screamed that out when Sam payed $4000). So I'm sure if I realy wanted to I could do all this for alot cheaper, and not feel so bad after I realy ruin it by taking a torch to it thinking I can realy make it transform with just a few adjustments.
