SixtiesSwing ◊ 2022-01-02 20:34	I was just noticing ANOTHER Lincoln Continental that can be seen to the right in the frame and parked immediately beyond the DB5. I wonder if the production company kept all the Ford supplied vehicles from Goldfinger. I say that because perhaps (and this is merely guesswork) the navy blue 1964 Lincoln that was used in the "Kentucky Stud Farm" scenes filmed at Pinewood merely remained with the company for transportation purposes. The Goldfinger Continental can be seen in publicity stills at a Stoke Poges golf course scenes in that film. Harry Salzman's company used the Goldfinger red Ford Country Squire in the Harry Palmer installment "The Billion Dollar Brain", so it wouldn't be surprising if the Goldfinger Lincoln continued to serve beyond that film. Ford probably gave it to the production for free or seriously reduced cost.
