Sunbar ◊ 2011-08-11 21:00	The Morris FG initally had a grille with vertical bars the Austin version had horizontal bars (as here) within a few years the Austin version was also used on the Morris. Later it was carried onto the BMC and Leyland versions. At the time of this movie (1965) it could only be a 1960 Austin S200 [FG] (2-ton probably twin rear wheels).
