Oh yes, just checked with my friend he said the one i am talking about was a rover standard 2000. My untrained eye found them too similar to distinguish.

Shammi Kapoor playing a prince in "Rajkumar", seen here in a 47/48 Buick convertible, he owned a similar one as well. The cars in the procession are a mix of pre war American Tourers.

More pics of the Triumph from Justice Raja, a 1983 malayalam movie starring Prem Nazir in lead role.

Looks like this movie had some interesting cars - Justice Raja is a remake of the Telugu movie Justice Chaudhary.

I see a pretty good condition Honda car - Is it the Prelude ? The car isnt visible clearly though. The equivalent scene in Telugu (which is the original version of this movie) had a Mercedes





And this looks like a caravan ?

Recently Tarun Thakral of the Heritage Transport museum shared a bunch of movie posters from his collection featuring cars in the artwork. Given the free time () I thought I'd check out these movies to catch any new cars.

The first movie I checked was Shiksha, the poster showed something like a Ford Thunderbird so I was curious. I was thrilled to see a lot of car action scenes, albeit poor quality.


A baby Austin that survives in a Bombay collection, though not restored.


A choptop 59 Chevy




Cool Coca Cola livery on a Tata Mercedes Truck


The best find - an early Ford Thunderbird that was originally exhibited at the Delhi World's fair by Ford, and later moved to Bikaner. Still survives in a private collection. I assume this regn number is fake.




A Sunbeam Alpine that has a race with the T-Bird


A cute Honda hatchback


A Mercedes 110


A motorcycle race scene at the end of the movie but no clear shots really.

I remember a similar (or same?) Sunbeam was used in a destructive car chase in a 70s movie AGENT VINOD, and the same car, painted red and topless, was used in this song from another movie as well:

In the movie Ajnabee we see Rajesh Khanna and Zeenat Aman in a Willys Jeep (the same Jeep is also seen in the movie Sharabi). Also seen is a neat little Honda motorcycle






And in the movie Ooche Log which seems to have been shot in Ooty we see a Mark 1 Amby and a Triumph mptorcycle

The Honda Benly. There was one with a mechanic at Ram Koti, Hyderabad. It was in decent running condition back in 2003. Wondering where it ended up.

2.? Renault R4 and triumph TR5 (racing scene)
3. MG magnetite ZA or ZB
4. ? Chrysler valiant
5. Ford Capri

4 is a Vauxhall Victor estate

Nice find, thanks for sharing.

3 is a Ford Prefect

The two tone application was a popular (and in my opinion very pretty) period feature - the 'deluxe' side trims were very high quality white metal, I luckily got them on one of my cars. It was common for a contrasting strip to be added with these trims. My car was smoke grey from new, with an oxford blue 'sash' (as the previous owner described it). Might have been a dealer application. Interestingly I also have not seen this design of trims on any English Morris cars, so it might have been a local design.
