help identifying a car from the 60s

Hello,

I am trying to identify a movie from a single picture I have,
which shows a car radio and a portion of the dashboard. I have so far
identified the radio as being a US Blaupunkt Frankfurt, probably from
the late 60s, and I was wondering whether anyone here would be able to
identify the car (maybe a Porsche) from the small part of the
dashboard
that is visible.

Any information would be appreciated! The image is he

Kind regards,

My local Porsche expert advises that it could be from either a 356B or
a 914, the color makes her think it more likely a 914 & that would
also probably fall more in line with the vintage radio.

Not a 356, but close. The 356 interior looks like this:

As you can see, it doesn't really have the three big dials from Sam's
picture.

The 914 interior doesn't match at all:

It could be a late 60's Alfa Romeo Spider. There's one in The Graduate
but I'm pretty sure it was red. Maybe a 007 movie?

This definitely looks like it. Even the switches on the
sides of the radio match! Thanks a lot.

As for the movie, a friend has suggested that the French movie "Les
Choses de la vie" by Claude Sautet had the right car in the right
color in it. I've never seen the movie and can't find a copy so I'll
let you know that in Germany it was release as "Die Dinge des Lebens"
and in the US "The Things of Life".

Glad to help,

Anna
