That looks like a seriously customized 1970 Ford Torino, or maybe even a Fairlane 500. |

1971 Ford it is I think if the reg number is correct..... The vehicle details for NCD 815M are: Date of First Registration 02 08 1973 Year of Manufacture 1971 Cylinder Capacity (cc) 4000CC Vehicle Status Unlicensed Vehicle Colour YELLOW |

How did you find that out? |
◊ 2006-04-04 18:43 |
DVLA website I guess. It can come in handy sometimes!.... And yes it's a 1971 Torino |

As Simon says the DVLA is good if you think you have a probable manufacturer and have the reg number. http://www.vehiclelicence.gov.uk/EvlPortalApp/index.jsp go to "vehicle enquiry" and insert reg number and manufacturer. -- Last edit: 2006-04-04 18:51:18 |

Wow. It's somewhat disturbing that anyone can get licence plate and find the owner of a car or truck that easily. On the other hand, it's certainly useful for us if we want to track down cars, trucks, buses, motorcycles, and tractors in British movies. |

Do you know if there's way of looking up US plates? |

I don't think you can do that so easily here. Nearly a decade ago, some stalker in New York State used something like this to look for a girl he liked, and he killed her. NYSDMV removed this function from their website, and a lot of other states followed after that. -- Last edit: 2006-04-22 19:50:47 |

..was there a 4000cc Torino.? (Without checking my books....I thought they were all much larger.?) |
◊ 2006-06-08 16:28 |
A six cylinder, maybe? |

I noticed running white light just by the parking lamp. Is this UK requirement? |

That looks like a knockoff Batmobile |

This car was later taken to the Isle of Wight and used to promote the Island Wax Museum, still painted yellow but covered in black bats and writing. It was definitely a V8 whenever it drove past me - I saw it several times in the late 1990s, and was told by someone (probably not correctly) that it was registered as a Chevelle... I applied for the job driving it around 5 days a week during summer but sadly didn't get it. Was quite surprised when I watched the film and saw it doing duty at a banger racing circuit. |

I'm wondering if the original oblong parking lights have been removed and replaced by those small white round lights? Odd, because to be road legal in the UK cars built after 1965 need amber/orange indicators (parking lights) |
