Smile Re: V-8 Fords on Film

I think they use two 1934 Fordors--one they drive like crazy and the other is the one that is wrecked. There is a very funny driving scene at end where the Ford is really put through a lot. Filmed on location on Southern California streets, there are a lot of old cars in this ending "chase" sequence.

Tony , Thanks again as I now have it and if you look close they have at least 4 cars for this scene - deluxe and standard . The one that is lifted up by the fire truck { check out the suspension } and the one that is spun off in the circling scene are props - look at what happens to it as it leaves the boom and disappears behind the wall . It basicially implodes . Got a kick outta this and it only cost me $5.00 . Most of the interior shots aren't the 33 but oh well . Most of these look to be 33's to me . There is a 34 5w parked just before the bridge in one scene . Anyone know what the name of the movie is where laurel and hardy trash a 36 roadster ?
