At 1:12:XX into the picture, give or take a few minutes, there's a car that goes by in the background. I've never seen that before. Not much to use, but it's probably American, due to the California filming locations. I don't have it recorded.

This one?

I think you'll find it's a British Ford Ten (1938-ish) tourer. I seem to remember that one such often appeared in American movies when they wanted to establish a 'British' or even European background.

Yes, that's it. Thanks. I'm fairly weak at identifying European motorcars.

The car is a Ford 7W Ten Tourer introduced March 1937 and discontinued October 1938. 1172 cc flathead 4 cylinder with transverse spring suspension just similar to a Model T
