I don't know these too confidently to mark it as 'made for USA'. On a side-note, it has a repeater in the third thumb, maybe it was added just for the scene to make it appear more correct for the era, something which was neglected during its first appearance. Alternatively, two cars were used, but I do find that hard to believe.
