Private Malone 66 BB

[Walter F.]

Was wondering if anyone had info on the car used in the video with country singer David Ball titled Private Andrew Malone? Seems to be a 66 Big Block with off road exhausts and knock off rims.

I saw that video a couple of times. IIRC it was a L36 not
a L72. Correct me if I am wrong. Larry

Yes, an L36, low RPM redline on tach.

Sorry for the late response... I don't frequent the TDB as much as I'd like. Several years ago, I wrote a post regarding some background info about "Private Malone' and how it related to my '66 Corvette (CLICK HERE). At the time, they wanted my Vette for the video, but had no means of getting in touch with me. In the end, they contacted the 'Nashville Corvette Club' and were put in touch with Tim Artist (the owner of the '66 used in the video). If you are interested in the 'Behind the Scenes' video, CLICK HERE.

Side Note: Somehow, they cracked the LR fender during the shoot... OUCH!

Hope this helpz,

How much does a company usually pay to use a members car? Who pays for the damage?

I'm guessing it was up to individual negotiations... and I hope they made sure the film crew had insurance.
