Poked around the net for a while. This is distinctive by the central overrider being tucked behind the bumper instead of on it like the other two. Looked up all the Depression-era makes I could think of (and keep in mind there aren't many) but didn't find it. I still haven't found any with such a rear bumper, but maybe it could be a LaSalle about 1929? The central overrider on the front bumper is remarkably small when compared to other makes, which might cause the effect I'm seeing here: http://www.vaultcars.com/wp-content/uploads/30LaSalleRoadster-011.jpg LaSalle was the cheaper Cadillac, and therefore GM, so it could match what nzcarnerd said. |

I've had a look at this film online, and it appears someone has stuck an anachronistic Ford plum on the rear deck. Could be a Model A, but then again, maybe it's something else quickly dressed up. People see the plum and think 'All right, it's a Ford A, common car.' |

On the right closer to the camera is indeed a 1930 Ford model A,a firend of mine bought the car near a decade ago from a car collector in Vista California with all the credentials to prove this particular car was in the movie,including this Iconic picture,the modern Ford blue oval emblem on the trunk was a very distinctive item in this car,the car was powered by a modern ford ranger pick up power train and 1940 ford hidraulic brakes,I replaced the blue emblem with a period correct ford emblem and kept the oval piece as a souvenir in my garage for years till Desided to mount it on the trailer hitch cap on my sons 72 Ranchero,I’m writing here now because I was talking to a friend about where the blue emblem came from n was looking for the picture where it shows the car on the movie set,and found there were a discussion about it,Sorry it took so long for the reply. |
