"northern Soul" Film Shoot In Manchester

[Vinca]

I am an art director for a film due to shoot 15th July - 25 August 2012. The film is set in Manchester and centres around some young people involved in the Northern Soul dance scene - and that is also the name of the film.

It is a very low-budget British film but has attracted some interesting names such as Steve Cougan.

My job is to try to find cars, motorbikes or commercial vehicles from the 60's or 70's (up to 1976). We are looking for a number of vehicles so would be interested in hearing from anyone with a car they might be willing to bring along for a day or two of filming.

Sadly there is very little money available to pay people (£100 per day) but we will pay fuel costs. It will be great fun though! Thats why I am involved! And also to be part of creating some great British cinema.

If you are interested in helping out for a small fee (and lunch!) please contact me ASAP at the email below.

Thank you so much for any help you can give.

Kind Regards,

Vinca Petersen

My car is 1979 and I live in Bristol so too far away. Sounds like fun and I'm sure some of the natives may be able to help.

Good luck, be great to see some Manta A's on film...

_{Friends of mine have Lambretta's and Vespas (that I know of ) from that era if thats any good. Most were actually in The Who film Quadraphenia !!, we are that old. Plus most of the Northern soul DIDN't happen in Manchester !}

_{Let me know by PM if I can assist in any way. Steve}

Hi there Vinca,

I'm interested, I have a 1973 Manta sr in black can you give me some more info please. Also are you saying you can pay £100 a day or you can't pay £100 a day because it's a bit unclear what you mean?

Thanks, Ray.
