A sporty Hillman (?) drop head is seen in the Ashok Kumar starrer Jeevan Naiyya. Don't miss the old style registration number.

Re: Old Bollywood & Indian Films : The Best Archives for Old Cars

In the Raj Kapoor starrer 'Bewafa'

We see a rare sight, a Jaguar XK120 roadster. Unfortunately cannot identify which particular car this is.

Re: Old Bollywood & Indian Films : The Best Archives for Old Cars

A video clipping from the film Gehri Chaal (1973)



The CJ3B Willys jeep soon changes over to a CJ3A after a few minutes. However, the Bombay traffic of the times (early 1970's)in the beginning is a treat to watch.

Incidentally the same CJ3B also makes an appearance in 'Chor Machaye Shor' and 'Bikhre Moti'.

A Chevrolet school bus

A Mark 2 Amby and Jawa in hot pursuit. I really enjoyed these scenes shot in Pune camp, so nostalgic.
Old Bollywood & Indian Films : The Best Archives for Old Cars-img_7098.png

A Herald based kit in seen in many scenes. I have seen this car a couple of times as a kid in Pune, once in cream and black (or maybe it was this same yellow) and later in red. More recently it went to Jaipur, where it survives.

(PS - incidentally this scene is shot on Bund Garden Road, at 5 Star Apartments. My mother lived there at the time, and clearly remembers watching the shooting!)

A Peugeot 404 Cabrio which we also saw in 'Joru Ka Ghulam'
