editPsycho
editWhat kind of car does the woman in Psycho (whom gets murdered) drives? I know it's a Ford, but I don't know anything else. Also, since the movie is in black and white, does anyone recognize what colours the car is. yes I know it's white, but the stripes on it I'm not sure of. Thanks.

Looks like it was a Ford Mainline - looks like one in the photo at this page (http://en.wiki.x.io/wiki/File:Psycho_House,_Motel_and_car_composite.jpg). ny156uk (talk) 21:21, 11 July 2010 (UTC)
- Should explain that i'm basing the likeness on this photo of a Ford Mainline Ute - the front end is 'exactly' the same as that in the wikipedia photo I linked to) http://www.trulinesteering.com.au/Images/Gallery/Ford_Mainline_Ute.jpg ny156uk (talk) 21:23, 11 July 2010 (UTC)
- Here's the Internet Movie Cars Database entry for Psycho, with photos, years, and models. According to that, it looks like her last car was a '57 Ford Custom 300. Clarityfiend (talk) 21:28, 11 July 2010 (UTC)
Yes! Thank you my fellow Wikipedians! God Bless! *sigh* I love how everyone is so helpful! If I ever get a car like that, I gotta have my licence plate say "Psycho", I just gotta! Moptopstyle1 (talk) 21:49, 11 July 2010 (UTC)
- The photo caption on the Wikipedia Psycho page reads, "The "Psycho" set still stands on the Universal lot." As I recall, the original Psycho house set was destroyed, and a new one was built for the Universal tour. Pepso2 (talk) 09:55, 12 July 2010 (UTC)
Yeah man, I went on that Tour. It was insane! They even re-enacted the stabbing scene, but only Norman Bates was gonna kill my Aunt. :-P Moptopstyle1 (talk) 03:55, 17 July 2010 (UTC)
