I looked very closely at that Ford pickup and observed (fenders, frame, body, radiator shell, under-carriage, etc.) that it was an amalgam of at least a 1931 Model A AND a 1932 Model 18 - there may have been a few more 'bits and pieces' of other later V-8's added into the mix.

Having seen the movie a couple of times before, this time I RECORDED it, so that I might play the lake section over and over again and again, until I felt satisfied that I had a pretty good idea of what it was I was looking at.
