Notice all the cars including the star vehicles supposedly located at Kentucky, USA are absent license plates! Could be removed due to privacy issue? |

This may be because the shots of Fort Knox were filmed on an exterior set in England rather than in Kentucky. -- Last edit: 2008-02-18 22:53:51 (G-MANN) |

When Goldfinger's "Operation Grandslam" begins, after the troops are all knocked out by the nerve gas released into the air by Pussy Galore's flying team, the convoy enters the military base of Fort Knox and drives to the United States Gold Depository. There are 5 vehicles in the convoy, at the front a Jeep, then two troop-carrying trucks, then a field ambulance (containing the laser) and at the rear a truck with Bond and Oddjob inside. However these vehicles change because some shots were filmed in location in the US and the rest in England around a mockup of the depository building. The Jeep at the front changes between a couple of different models, the troop carriers change from a Chevrolet and a Ford to two International Harvesters. I think the Dodge M43 Ambulance stays the same, but the truck (containing Bond and Oddjob) at the rear starts off as a Chevrolet before they enter the base, then to what I think is another Dodge M43 as they drive through the neutralized base, then to a Ford once they arrive at the depository. -- Last edit: 2008-03-17 15:03:57 |

The Jeeps I've added, obviously I know they are Jeeps, but I want to know the exact model each one is. If some of them are the same, maybe I'll group them together. |

The Ford Mustang was a 1964 car. The "B" plate marks it 1964 and, given that the film was released in October '64, the only way it could have been a '65 model year car would be if Ford had supplied it. Given that Aston Martin were extremely reluctant to release their DB5 for filming, it is possible to deduce that product placement of the type witnessed today wasn't rampant, and therefore Ford would not have released such a car. I note, however, that Gilette products feature prominently in the film - in Goldfinger's aircraft, for example, when that company's shaving cream thwarts Mai Li's attempts at spying - but having said that shaving cream is a relatively small-ticket item... |
