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. A seventies neighbourhood can be built around ordinary comings and goings, letting the vehicles belong to the street instead of presenting them as exhibits. Shop lettering, road signs and kerbside furniture should share the story date, particularly when a wide shot includes more of the street than the featured car.
Possible roles in a production
Wide exteriors require attention to the whole traffic mix, since a carefully chosen foreground classic cannot hide an unsuitable car passing in the distance. Period background work benefits from a mixture of ages, with the featured classic considered alongside the cars that appear farther down the street. If the story needs a specific period, the appearance should be researched for that date rather than relying on the word classic as evidence of suitability.
