I was watching "Mythbusters" last night (10:30p.m. pst) and they were looking for a "sportscar" for a stunt.
Next thing I see is that they are standing in a "Studebaker" junk yard!! They pan the yard with the camera and spot a rough gold colored Avanti. The episode was one I think was aired before about putting an ejection seat in a sports car. They decided not to go with the Avanti, because of the way the window glass and roof curved.
They used a Toyota instead!
I know that show is filmed in the Bay area. Could this be Bob Petersons yard?
