Missing footage

Hi. Over the years Dead River Rough Cut has gone through many incarnations. Once it was 90 minutes and then it was 30 minutes. Now it is 60 minutes.
Unfortunately, Richard and I have lost some important footage that just may be on an old VHS tape somewhere. Specifically, we're looking for a scene where Bob complains that the police will no longer allow him to live in his car. There is also a scene where Bob compares politicians in Washington to rats in his basement, and you know what Bob would do to Rats in his basement.
If by some chance you have this material or anything else you consider noteworthy, then please let me know. Thanks. Stu

The vehicle that you refer to, was called a "doodlebug" by Walt and Bob. Walt built it, and it was powered by a VW engine.

I recently watched the movie and was moved by several scenes. I've known people in rural Maine like Bob and Walter all my life, several in my own family. Those guys are exactly like my great uncles were, when they came back from WW2, and worked in the woods hunting and trapping. Not quite right in the head, yet resourceful and interesting.
