Hi,
I come here to identify vehicles in movies. That's true. :boidleau:
I'm amazed because each time I search for a title, and I am a tv addict, its vehicle content is on IMCDb and with great accuracy.
Are the active user here some kind of pundit in the automobile industry ?
I would have never guessed Terminator could drive a Winnebago not to mention Michael Myers at the steering Wheel of an Econoline and so on ...
Anyway keep on the identification and mainly keep this free ! :banzai:
Here are a few models to add in your db.

Good morning,
I need an identification for some cars models in a serial which counts 46 issue.
However my identification request is limited in cars from the first one.
The story takes place in China 1961. One model, an old bus, bears a chinese sign as a brand symbol.
There's also an ambulance and a front-wheel drive but I'm mainly after the bus.

What can I do ?
Thank you

Hello! (Bonjour !)

First, your pics are too "flat".

For the bus, it smells a copy of Czech bus mid-50s to mid-60s but I wouldn't tell more.

Third, the ambulance is a (copy of? probably no) Dodge WC 51 with modified cabin and body.

Hi,
What do you mean with my pics ?
Poor Resolution ?

Wikipedia gives a thorough List of Chinese car manufacturers.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_automobile_manufacturers_of_China
It may be a BAW bus from the Beijing Automobiles Holding or a model from Dadi. Auto for the symbol has a similar shape but it's only one of the first items. Could also be another brand. This list bears so much entries.
Thank you anyway

I meant that the proportions were not right: too wide, or not enough height.

It's not from a Blu-ray otherwise pics would have had a better look. It's a web serial. ; you don't have many choice about the aspect. There's barely fullscreen or double sized. I don't think it can be found in DVD box set not to mention Blu-ray.Not in my country anyway. France.

I suspect that the bus is a replica made for film use of a Chinese clone of the Skoda 706 RO:

The bus has styling features from the Skoda, but the body is too rectangular and boxy. The front axle is also too narrow.

Did the chinese brand indeed apply their sign on a Czeck bus -that would be a chinese trick but also a bit of a fraud- or was it the only model available for the making of the serial and the serial staff have applied a chinese sign to remind that the story take place in the 60s China? Thanks for your research
