This has been a common question the last few days.
The best shot is to contact your local Chamber of Commerce to get the phone
number for your local/state/regional Film Board. They will have the number of
your local "auto wrangler" who arranges these sort of things for film/tv
studios.
These wrangler guys always work off of commision from the studios. Beware of
the those firms out there that "register your car with film & tv studios" for a
fee. I'm told they're a rip off. They take your money, and send a picture of
your car off to the studio. Studios don't care to spend the time nor money to
file your car, so
they just pitch it. Hollywood Movie Cars (http://www.hollywoodmoviecars.com/)
is one such outfit. If you check out their web site, notice how they talk
about all types of cars used in movies and tv, yet -never- claim that any of
the ones -they've- registered are in them.
One legitimate guy who handles cars in the Pittsburgh tri-state area is:
Gene Mackrancy @ Car Casting
1339 Beverly Road
Port Vue, PA 15133
412-678-2670 Home
412-201-4703 Work
He -might- be able to tell you of another auto wrangler in your area, but don't
hold me to that.
Good luck, and let us know what you find out in your local area!
