maybe its just a white steering wheel Close up
Look at the horn in the center of the wheel..
how about this for useless...the drawbridge is the same one used in Cat's Eye when he get's caught smoking in his 320i 
That’s not useless information for us Ahight, because you and I live in the same area, but others who don’t live where we live, probably wouldn’t care to know such information.

Well I’m not sure what truck Alexander is talking about, but you have to look
at the picture of the Yellow and Black truck I gave. You have to look close (I mean really close) at the top of the fenders. There is a “Back bone” line that goes from the middle of fender (It starts at the headlamps) and flows toward the back of the fender. The truck in the movie has the exact same attribute.
I also wanted to add, that if I ever get some free time, I’ll drive down toward the
Castle Hayne end of Wilmington, North Carolina (Where I live) and visit the old
Wilmington film studio building. That is where the Black 1977 White-Western Star
truck is being kept in storage. I’ll see if I can get some pictures of it and post them here
on IMCDb.
Oh and I added the name of the draw-bridge used in movie, I noticed some people had asked questions about it. The name of the bridge and some interesting facts about it are listed under the comments for the trash truck that’s traveling over the bridge… useless information I know, but I thought everyone here might like to know what its’ name was. I think its so cool this movie was filmed right where I live.
