Why are the tires flat?

No Valance, maybe towbar related?

Looks like he tried to drive through a 914 sized pothole.

That is Roy Black next to the white 914. My guess would be the picture was taken during the filming of the video.

Actually the 914 is offroading. The air was let out of the tires to get a better grip. This is the early redneck challenge, before the guy built the 914 pickup (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

How does that narrative strike ya'll? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif)

Maybe they did some filming on a trailer so no air in front to lower the car and level it??

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/WTF.gif) Half way through the song I was hoping the trailer would go off the cliff.
