This catalogue entry records a 1974 Dodge Monaco Blues Brothers 'Bluesmobile' in black from the 1970s.

The 1974 Dodge Monaco Blues Brothers 'Bluesmobile' in black is filed under Classic, American, Police / Emergency and Replica / Film car, within the 1970s picture cars.

1970s on screen

The clothes around a seventies vehicle can be understated and practical, with character references doing more useful work than a blanket assumption about the decade. 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. A journey between an estate and a town centre can use the changing surroundings to tell the story, with the car linking the locations rather than dominating them.

Possible roles in a production

Close views of police markings should follow agreed fictional or replica treatment, so the camera does not imply that the supplied prop is in active service. For roadside emergency scenes, location arrangements and public-facing details need discussion before any replica vehicle or light treatment is placed in view. A static replica reveal can be built through camera movement and performer reaction, without needing to claim anything about the vehicle’s past use.
