Vintage AC in 'Tutankhamun'
« on: October 17, 2016, 15:39:46 »
The mini-series ‘Tutankhamun’ (dramitised story of the discovery of the tomb) started on ITV last night and a vintage AC was one of the cars used. Shown from three-quarter rear, it looked like an early ’20’s 4-cylinder. With no rear fuel tank and the position of the spare wheel dating it to about 1923. The series is filmed in South Africa so maybe the car is the one from the Franschhoek Motor Museum? There are another three episodes to come so it could reappear.
   
   The principal car, that of Lord Carnarvon, is a Rolls Silver Ghost of course.
