Production company: Wednesday Investments Pty Ltd and Filmco Ltd.
Budget: $2.6 million (Murray's Australian Film)
Locations: Sydney - the exterior for the area in which the T and T Towing workshop was set was in (a now much changed) Macdonald Street, Erskineville (Erko) in Sydney's inner west (the entrance and interiors were a cheat in another location); speedway racing was done at Granville (aka Parramatta) raceway; the main hero houses were situated in Monterey Parade Ermington, while a stunt crash in the rain in city streets was filmed at the corner of Kippax and Waterloo street, Surry Hills (The business E J Dwyer Pty Ltd, a supplier of missal and prayer texts, still in business in November 2014, can be seen in the background). Other business signs provide clues regarding locations - for example, Casula Auto Wreckers. According to the film's Facebook page , the takeway used for Grubb's Grub was at Homebush (but has since fallen on hard times), while the Holden dealership that's featured was in Parramatta at the corner of Church street and the Great Western Highway
....keep digging, it's like a treasure hunt =)
