I don't recall ever seeing this posted here?
http://www.citypaper.com/printStory.asp?id=13717
it's a funny story about a dude who won one of the Little Miss Sunshine picture vehicles in a contest.

Is it irony?
He can keep it becuse it's a piece of crap. The Maryland Gov. would want so much in taxes that he wouldn't be able to keep it if it was worth the stated value.
Go figure ( your taxes). |

Ya funny. That is the same story I hear when I go to look at vintage stuff. They say the thing is mint. You get there and it is junk. Then the guy says it is mint for a 35 year old vehicle. Everyone sees something different.

| Sounds like the studio gets a pretty good deal out of this. They pick up a junk van off the streets of LA, use it in a movie that earns millions and then declare it has a value of $20,000 for a $7,000 tax write off. |
