Which ones? The 55 Chev sedan deliveries that kept changing? Or is there another one that I missed (haven't seen it in years) that movies has a ton of errors that are fun to spot, and their not due to sloppy work IMHO, but just not noticed.

Yeah, the forest service picked up Cary Grant in a 56 Chevy ambulance/wagon that had the one piece sedan delivery type rear door. When they delivered him to Eva Marie Saint out in the woods, the wagon had the more common split opening rear tailgate with the window half that opened going up and the lower half that opened in a downward direction.

JIMI: THANKS, JohnBrown! There some post on the HAMB that address those inconsistensies -- with pix -- but YOU saved from having to look. I was just trying to illustrate the point that Hollywood has always seemed to be like PT Barnum: Fool MOST of the people . . .

 

Me too. "excuse me, that's the wrong year wheels for a 1967 period, that wheel came out in 1970."...I learned to shut up, or I ruined the movie...

 

In the middle photo there are two FJ-1 Fury's. The FJ-1 evolved into the F-86.

This picture involved Edsel employees buying Shetland ponies that were used as a Edsel Sales promotion. Feel bad for the ponies; I'm sure they were given away to clueless people
