Brokeback Mountain truck is on eBay

The half-ton pick-up truck used in the award-winning gay Western "Brokeback Mountain" is up for sale on eBay, and the seller, a Canadian high school student, hopes the proceeds will help pay his way through college.
Matthew Kennedy said he bought the black, 1950 GMC truck last year at an auction of vehicles used in the movie because he liked its looks, and only decided to sell when he realized the amount of attention the film was garnering.

"The movie was getting a lot bigger and I thought I could sell it and put away the money for school," he said.

Kennedy's eBay description of the vehicle says it was driven by Jack Twist, played by Jake Gyllenhaal, when he meets Ennis Del Mar, played by Heath Ledger, at the start of the film. Bidding has reached $15,600 so far, almost double the $8,000 starting price, fueled by the ties to the film.
"The only thing I knew about the movie was that it was being filmed in my area and it was a cowboy movie," he said. Murray Ord, executive producer at Alberta Film Entertainment, said it's standard procedure to sell film gear post-production. "Whether it be furniture, props, anything we purchased, we try to recoup the cost," he said.
