Stardust (1974)
Factual error: When Jim first enters the fairground to look for Mike he walks past a ride where the vehicles are based on the mini-Moke car which did not start production until 1964, This scene is set on the day of president Kennedy's murder in November 1963.

That'll Be the Day (1973)
Factual error: Towards the end of this film when Jeanette is talking to Jim while he is working on his van, a modern red convertible car drives past them in the background.
Suggested correction: This is too vague an entry, what model and year is the car seen? I certainly couldn't identify it. The scene is seems to be set in the early 60's, so what do you consider a modern car when this is a 1973 film.

Trivia: Adam Faith limps in stardust as he was injured in a car accident shortly before filming, but this fitted his character Mike, as Mike exited the prequel "that'll be the day" when he was beaten up by thugs although Mike was played by Ringo Starr in that film.

Revealing mistake: Bo and Luke Duke's car the "general Lee" usually has no glass in the side windows due the doors being welded shut as per NASCAR regulations which is why they climb through the windows to enter and leave the car, but when the general is doing one of its many jumps, in the long shots there is glass in the side windows.
