2. "With some research we found out it was an 85 Dodge Omni. After a quick Craigslist search we found one 5 hours away listed for $800! While the car runs we didn't want to risk driving it 5 hours since it's pretty old so we towed it back home to Nashville!"
3. "We talked him down $650 cause we drove so far to get it and there where some big cosmetic flaws including a windshield with multiple spider web cracks in it! Here is the first shot back at home!"
4. "For those that know the movie, the dude continually knocks down a lawn jockey - who knew these would be so hard to find! The real ones are $400+ and heavy as hell. We found this plastic zombie one on amazon and with some modeling clay and silver spray paint I think it tuned out pretty good! DISCLAIMER: I am not a sculptor!"
5. "Next was the design and printing process - this part was easiest as I am a graphic designer by trade :)"
6. "The finished car topper - its so simple but that's how it was in the film"
7. "And BOOM! The nearly finished Nero's car! Obviously still needs some love - missing door handles, some cosmetic work, a windshield wiper etc but some of that adds to the effect we are going for!"

12. "Every year the Nashville Symphony plays the original Home Alone with the musicians playing the John Williams score underneath and we are parking the car out front for a photo op for 2 sold out showings!"
13. "This is like a whole cheese pizza just for me!". This guy fulfilled his dream, did you?
