Where to lend classic cars for movie filming?

I would like to know how one would be able to go about to get one's classic automobile into motion picture filming. Any resource or contact would greatly be appreciated.

I would also like to know how I could get my 1987 Ford Pinto on the set of a film. It's red.

You probably have to be near where they're filming the particular movie. I doubt they actually hold any cars.

most states have automobiles they will loan out for free for film production. Everything from old cars to work trucks. you just have to contact the state film office and send them your insurance.
