Shot around 1981, this footage shows JoAnn Elam watching a few men (including her second husband Joe Hendrix) inspect their sports car, followed by a few shots of the farm where the scene takes place (location unknown). When Elam appears on screen, Hendrix is probably the person behind the camera, although this should not weaken her status as the author of this film. The rapid editing of the various shots of the car at the beginning seems in fact typical of many films by Elam.
