RIP Toecutter
04 Dec 2020 13:09
Strangely enough I found this on the garage forum.

Although the movie was not responsible for my initial love of Kawasaki's it certainly contributed.

I named my cat Toecutter after seeing the movie. She lived 24 years. RIP

Did anybody else just now find out that Toecutter and Imortin Joe were the same guy? That's one heck of a legacy of onscreen menace. RIP

Really? I thought everyone knew that. It was mentioned a lot when Fury Road was released.

I didn’t know that till I looked up the cast of Mad Max.

"Stone" from 1974 is a great one if you like actors from MAD MAX (including HK-B ) and a particular brand of motorcycle.

I was 11 when Stone first featured at our local drive in, there used to be an old coffee shop across the road from the drive in and from there you could see the screen from side on, not a great way to watch a movie but i was a little kid and it was awesome. I'll never forget the never ending procession of motorcycles going in to watch, all makes and models, but i was fixated on the new Z900's, it was the seed that grew my love of motorcycles, I'll remember it forever.... RIP Toecutter....
