The vintage cars on the set of Harrison Ford's new movie Indiana Jones 5 are worth hundreds of thousands of pounds and give the transport museum a run for their money in terms of reflecting sixties Americana.
And despite there being more than thirty cars on set, directors of the film have brought in a special scanning machine to replicate the vehicles they have in 3D - so they can insert multiple copies of them using CGI later on.
