And by "extras" I mean "pics of cars". Spoilery for the fic, natch.
Chad volunteers to acquire the getaway car, at least, and the next day he collects Jensen and Chris in a new-looking green Ford. (Just pretend this is painted dark green instead of black.)
In a tiny town called Vinita, Jared steals a Ford out of someone's driveway and they abandon the black Chevrolet by the side of the road.
The four of them pool their money for a car and Chad and Jared buy a used 1929 Model A Ford, which they both spend a not-inconsiderable amount of time tinkering with.
After about fifteen minutes, while the four of them are still discussing their options and trying to figure out where they are, a red four-door Chevrolet pulls up alongside them and a man in a straw boater leans out of the driver's-side window to ask if they need some help.
One day in February, Jared and Chad appear in Steve's driveway in an old rag-top Marmon, a ten-year-old car that someone very clearly loves, if the perfect blue paint job and purring engine are any indication.
Jared is rummaging through the glove box, probably looking for a map, when he pulls out a piece of paper, squints at it, and exclaims "Shit, guys, we stole the sheriff's car."
Chad and Jared finally return with a second car, a dark red Ford that Chad insists Jared broke into one-handed.
They're stopped for a rest outside a little Arkansas town called Batesville, to eat the lunch they picked up at a roadside café and so Chris can check out the car.... (The car grille looks later than 1933/34, but I thought it was a very inspiring pic.)
(Click to embiggen.) I bought a street map of the midwest in order to track the boys' exploits, and the only place I could put it where it would stay up was my dining room door. These are all the places I flagged, in chronological order (towns where they robbed banks are numbered):
1 San Antonio, TX (Frost Bank)
Jensen's folks (Dallas, TX)
2 Davis, OK
3 Tulsa, OK (Exchange National Bank)
4 Cape Girardeau, MO
Matthew and Kirsten (outside Evansville, IN)
5 Aurora, IL (Benchmark Bank)
6 Iowa City, IA
7 Lawrence, KS (Sunflower Bank)
8 Paragould, AK
9 Decatur, IL
10 Lawton, OK
11 Abilene, TX (Farmers and Merchants National Bank)
Steve (Bryantsville, KY)
12 Troy, MO (Peoples Bank)
13 Prescott, AK
Danneel (Shreveport, LA)
The End (Houston, TX)
