tutscat ◊ 2018-10-16 23:28	Hello from California. I have photos of the October 15-16 shoot at Westwood Village, which happens to be my neck of the woods. The era of the film is 1969. -- Last edit: 2018-10-17 01:15:37

tutscat ◊ 2018-10-17 00:07	The location is the intersection of Weyburn and Broxton. Two well known theaters are there, the Village and the Bruin. The Village especially has many film premiers. At the Village the marquee advertises the film "Pendulum." At the Bruin is the Matt Helm film "The Wrecking Crew," co-starring Sharon Tate. Much of the filming is inside and outside the Bruin. The Bruin can also be seen in "American Gigolo" and the Fatboy Slim music video "Praise You." -- Last edit: 2018-10-17 01:02:15

tutscat ◊ 2018-10-17 03:32	The film spent a lot of resources to recreate the Westwood Village of 1969. For example, all the new signage and awnings at Stan's Donuts, and the resurrection of it's old name "The Corner Shoppe." Look closely and you can see Stan's Donuts signage. Everything else is for the film. Also there is signage for the film "Joanna" on a wall you can see in American Gigolo. On a beauty shop the film adds depictions of contemporaneous hairstyles. I go to Stan's often. Stan's doesn't have hot dogs any more, but I emailed Stan to say it was a good idea to have them again. -- Last edit: 2018-10-17 03:53:25
tutscat ◊ 2018-10-17 05:18	Tonight, with most of the crews and trucks gone, the theater marquees are illuminated with Tarantino's vintage selections. They are great neon art. Flash a lot, of which I have video. I do not think I can post that effectively here. Single pics do not document all the colors. -- Last edit: 2018-10-17 05:25:21

night cub ◊ 2019-07-20 18:11	So how many classic cars do you think Tarantino destroys in this one? In the commercial, I noticed the Continental is bashed up.
IHateFreedom ◊ 2019-07-30 18:15	I don't recall any cars getting destroyed. The blue Continental is in a scene where Brad Pitt challenges Bruce Lee to a fight. Lee tries to karate kick Pitt and Pitt grabs him and throws him into the car, heavily denting the front passenger side door. Pitt then gets thrown off the lot, partially since the Continental belonged to the stunt coordinator's (Kurt Russell) wife (Zoe Bell). Roman Polanski drives a '50s MG T-type in the film. I recall a late '60s Jaguar E-type was one of DiCaprio's neighbor's cars. -- Last edit: 2019-07-30 18:18:34
thestig8 ◊ 2019-08-01 03:03	The Cadillac is owned by Rick Dalton (Leonardo DiCaprio), but driven by Cliff Booth (Brad Pitt) for a majority of the film. 4 star car easily. Sharon Tate (Margot Robbie) drives a classic 911 hardtop in the film, there's also a Targa in the background in one scene, near a Ferrari 250 California. A Volvo P1800 can be seen on DiCaprio's street, it's in the shadows near the end of the film but you can tell what it is due to the overall shape and some of the details. One of Sharon Tate's friends has an early Firebird convertible seen near the end of the film. -- Last edit: 2019-08-01 03:05:09

Ddey65 ◊ 2019-08-18 14:55	This Chevy C-Series panel truck is a '64. This is another movie I want to see this summer. That and "Good Boys" and "Aladdin" (no cars, of course).
Ddey65 ◊ 2019-08-18 16:33	tutscat wrote Antoine says set photos are good too, so I shall provide: They didn't show that contemporary Kenworth in the third thumbnail, did they?
Lateef ◊ 2019-08-18 23:40	There was a dilapidated 57 Studie among the wrecks at the Spahn Ranch. It stuck with me for some reason.
Skid ◊ 2019-08-23 00:05	The shell of a white 1959 Edsel convertible was also used on the Spahn Ranch set. I don't know if it's visible in the movie, but it shows up in behind the scenes pictures.
Ddey65 ◊ 2019-08-25 07:12	There's an early-1970's Ford F-Series Sports Custom pickup behind that yellow '62 Impala. And I hope somebody here finds a scene with this Imperial. Any chance you have a front view of this 2nd generation Ford Econoline van? Or even a passenger side view? -- Last edit: 2019-08-25 07:15:46
night cub ◊ 2019-08-25 07:21	That Econoline is a 1969, the rear sidemarker is low, which was only on the 1969 model year
Ddey65 ◊ 2019-08-31 05:20	I like this '65 Ford Custom. That's incredibly well-preserved. And it's one star. -- Last edit: 2019-09-02 18:02:50

Belongs to a friend of mine. I think none of the scenes with my own 1969 F-250 made it to the final release. https://projectpicturecar.com/1971-ford-f250

OwenOxley ◊ 2019-12-03 01:46	Anyone know what these motorcycles are? -- Last edit: 2019-12-03 02:27:55 (dsl)
the sad biker ◊ 2019-12-03 10:09	OwenOxley wrote Anyone know what these motorcycles are? Both Sportsters, nearest looks period correct XL/XLH 900, further appears to have a disc brake so 1973+ XLH1000, I believe there may have been a factory model with big tank/instrument panel, will have to go digging. Edit, can't find a factory option for the tank/speedo but available as an aftermarket kit. -- Last edit: 2019-12-03 16:29:23

Ddey65 ◊ 2020-01-20 19:54	Okay, can anyone identify this one-star ground conveyor on the set of "The Green Hornet?" It looks like something made before the 1950's.

Ddey65 ◊ 2020-01-21 20:10	Thanks kegare. Does anybody think it should be added, or is to too small? FYI, there was also a Chapman Titan II in this movie, but the view was obstructed by too many wooden railings. -- Last edit: 2020-01-21 20:15:24

I haven't seen the movie, but it is on my RADAR and will probably watch soon. As I scrolled through the listings of cars, I noticed the one photo of the block full of 1960s cars, signage, etc. The attention to detail really resonated with me, so thanks for confirming my observations with some first-hand experience. I was only in Hollywood once, but from that experience, as well as watching tons of 1960s repeats, it really does set the tone well. And of course, the final judge is a local knowledgeable of that era. Great stuff!
