Dick Tracy (1990) Animatronixx DEYes, that's it as far as I recall. They wanted the cars to look more 'generic', just to support the comic strip atmosphere. 2009-06-10 00:46

pilou wrote As stated with the individual cars , most of them appearing in this movie seem to have been modified or disguised to some extent .I do not know the reason for this,


My idea is it's to help stylize the look and feel of the movie.

1937 De Soto Coupe [S-3]
Dick Tracy (1990)
pittsThe yellow coupe is actually a 37 Desoto as it is in my brothers garage in Sydney, Australia. He recently imported it from the US. Great fun to drive! The car has bullet holes in the front fender and bonnet on the passenger side, runs a 331 hemi with twin carburettors and original auto. Looks great! 2006-01-02 10:23

1937 Studebaker Dictator 6
Dick Tracy (1990)
DAF555 SEItīs a mirror of the time, when the military was in fashion. Commander, President were other Studebakers of the time. Opel had the Kapitän and Admiral. 2005-12-02 19:50

1937 Studebaker Dictator 6
Dick Tracy (1990)
DAF555 SEI go along with that, it resembles of that in many ways.

I havnīt seen the comics but I think they were of the late thirties, maybe the original drawings looked something like this, and thatīs the reason that all cars are modified?

1937 De Soto Coupe [S-3]
Dick Tracy (1990)
DAF555 SEAnother Chrysler Corp from 1937 or 1938. I guess itīs Dodge 1937 mostly because of the hood ornament, but itīs hard to be absolutely sure. 2005-12-02 19:04
1937 Studebaker Dictator 6
Dick Tracy (1990)
Jun JPI think it's 1937 Studebaker Dictator Coupe.
But,broad metal plate added radiator grill, front fender cutted and rear window opening is differlent.
Dick Tracy is based on comics and "Walt Disney"movie.
I wonder it is remodeled so as not to feel the reality.

1939 Divco-Twin Model U
Dick Tracy (1990)
antp BEThat's annoying these companies that change their names. We only two Divco on IMCDB, and they do not even have the same make name :D By the way, the link that you posted allowed me to put a model name on this other Divco ;)

1939 Divco-Twin Model U
Dick Tracy (1990)
Alexander DEI knew this van, but could not think of the name -- thank you!

Now I found a nice page (http://www.divco.org/) which gives a lot of background information. This shape was designed in 1937, entered production in 1939 and stayed unchanged until 1986! Between 1936 and 1944 this company was known as Divco-Twin.

If we assume that this is one of the first models then it is the 'Divco-Twin Model U' (1939).

1938 Cadillac Series 75 V8 Formal Sedan
Dick Tracy (1990)
pilou BE The second small picture right shows a rather good sideview of the car identifying it as a Cadillac Series 75 V8 Formal Sedan of 1938. On the small picture left one can see that the original grille has been covered with four large fake chrome bars but the Cadillac goddess mascot of the 1938 V8 cars is still there to betray its origin! 2005-11-23 16:15

pilou BECould be .Hope it was a gimmick explosion and that the Dodge still exists. 2005-11-23 14:49
Dick Tracy (1990) pilou BEAs stated with the individual cars , most of them appearing in this movie seem to have been modified or disguised to some extent .I do not know the reason for this .May be to depart from connotation with existing makes to render them more neutral or for merchandising/marketing/patenting/trade mark reasons ? (some of the cars seen here have been reproduced as toys).All cars are from the second half of the thirties , fitting in Tracy's original strip cartoon stories. 2005-11-23 13:57

1937 Dodge Touring Sedan [D-5]
Dick Tracy (1990)
pilou BEThe car in the explosion scene on the small picture is another one , a General Motors small body of 1937 , I think a Buick Special four-door touring sedan rather than an Oldsmobile or a Pontiac , because it has the standing lights on the front wings and it has not the taillights mounted high at the belt molding as the Oldsmobile.However front grille may also have been modified.Difficult to see on the picture 2005-11-23 13:34

1937 Chrysler Royal Six
Dick Tracy (1990)
pilou BEThe base here is undoubtedly a Chrysler Royal Six four door sedan from 1937 , but the grille ,headlights and sides of the hood have been modified .The car also has a non-stock hood emblem.In this movie many cars were more or less "camouflaged" probably to render them more neutral and independent of makes. 2005-11-23 09:11
