This catalogue entry records a 1972 Ford Cortina 2000 XL in brown from the 1970s.

1970s on screen

Wardrobe should be researched for the character and date, rather than treating every seventies arrival as an excuse for the same conspicuous fashion cues. Domestic props give a seventies car a reason to be outside a house, whether the action is a return with shopping or the start of a journey. Seventies cars often suit everyday scenes outside homes, shops and workplaces, where familiar errands can carry the period more quietly than a stylised entrance.

Possible roles in a production

A classic used in a commercial can be discussed through the visual references for the shoot, without assigning it unsupported history or screen credits. Repeated arrivals work best when the performers have rehearsed their bags and coats, rather than discovering how to manage them during the take. A classic can belong to a period street or a present-day character, and those roles ask for different choices of surrounding vehicles and props.
