1970 BBC Factory Video

Copying over from the Dino Forum:


Spent my morning doing screen captures...

Video quality is too low to get a lot of details, but lots on interesting info about colors.

My heart stopped when I saw this (funny what things excites one):

Notice the shape of the washer-bag hanging on the fender; I've long contended that the rectangular bag is more likely to be correct (at least for earlier cars).

Also, no sign of any of the often used "Corte & Cosso" labels anywhere in the video; so those were ever on factory cars, they had to come later.

Sadly, while there are great shots of the fuel lines:

The resolution is so low, that you can't tell if they are braid-covered or not (note that you can't even see the threads on the throttle rod). But some interesting things include the black hardware on the connection to the throttles and the main throttle spring, and the glossy finish of the wrinkle paint; the latter is another thing that I've hypothesized is more correct than the typical matte sheen.

The pictures also give the impression that the cam-covers have the same coarse wrinkle that one typically finds (still preserved on) the relay-"box" cover. This makes me re-consider my thinking that the cam-covers had a different wrinkle texture on them.

Oh, and while I always claim that you can't really trust pictures for the real hue of a color, this picture does support the notion of the Konis being "dull red" in that timeframe:

Oh, and probably nickel-plate control arms:

In the above pics, to me, the brake master looks painted, but the bolt on the end looks yellow-cad; which to me is still very worth noting.

I think all the early cars had that two wire-cap reservoir (seems to correspond roughly to having those hose shrouds on either side of the engine compartment); I wish all cars had those reservoirs, as they still seem to be available, whereas the no-wires version seems to be unobtainium.

I also found the fact that the reservoir metal cap appears shiny to be interesting.

Oh, and I forgot to mention the clear glimpses of the angles and placements of the wiper blades.

I had missed the fact that the short return hose is in those shots of the silver Daytona engine bay. I agree that it does look awfully glossy for a braid covering. Also un-braided would match what I had in my car back at the final return section of hose back in the rear wheel-well, and on my car, that hose had the appearance of never having been serviced in 50 years (original clamps and everything).

While I saw those yellow rectangles on the struts, I poked around on the web, and could not find any evidence of a vintage of Corte &Cosso label that was that color, so I'm not sure what to make of it.

 

The best view of the wiper angles is in the first screen-grab that you posted.
Pretty clearly a LHD car, given the position of the brake-booster.
