    Those recent photos were filmed around Kingston, New York. It doesen't look like anyplace where locals would have resources for projects of any kind. I'd hate to see what it looks like there now, if it was a Hell Hole 40 years ago

    Yeah. The owner of Rapido bought a surplus New Look/Fishbowl, and they used it, plus GM engineering drawings, to make the molds for them.
