Lateef ◊ 2011-01-03 18:05	dsl wrote 1972+ But the movie was made in 1971.. well, supposing they filmed some bits in early December (due to the snow) 1971 and premiered the movie on cinemas around Christmas... that could be possible, but not very likely. What do you think? -- Last edit: 2011-01-03 18:06:13
dsl ◊ 2011-01-03 20:01	Lateef wrote But the movie was made in 1971... What do you think? Mmmm... I see your point. These look like the flat grey-infilled hubcaps which appeared on several Fords (Cortina Mk3, Taunus TC1, Consul) at mid-trim levels (GL/XL) for 1972+ my (it may even have been 1973my). Is the film date solid?? If it is, the car date would have to become 1971 and the hubcaps remain a puzzle, with these comments left on the page as discussion. Whatever they are, they are not the usual style for a 71 Cortina.
