And this is pure speculation... Miller and a fraternity?

Re: The Tattoo
Yep. I've seen lots of photographs of this car too, and of things in the rest of the film. I have them packed neatly together at 24 frames per second on a 90 minute dvd.mfpvehicles wrote: Another misconception is that the names on Big Bopper were straight up and down lettering, when in fact the names Roop & Charlie were on a slant.
Ive seen the photographs of the original Big Bopper to support that fact.
I rest my case.
Cheers
To give you some leeway, you probably meant the Sarse/Scuttle car, which you CAN briefly see the slanted lettering in a few frames as it goes past Big Bopper at the intersection.

Re: The Tattoo
Sorry to burst your bubble, But to just have 24frames per second DVD taken from the movie although thats impressive it doesnt beat the face to face with original cast members and crew for the facts.
Furthermore, No I wasnt incorrect in stating the Big Bopper Lettering was slanted.
Fact # Ive seen the images taken of this vehicle on set/ off camera and also at the Wreckers after the movie stacked on top of March Hare which were photographed by Chic Stringer, and it definately has slanted lettering. Regardless of the images being 30 years old before you start to shoot down that credability too, can hardly lie.
Tim Ridge, George Kritty, Marke Kemp & Jason can all vouch for the facts as previously stated.
