| What the hell year is it, anyway??? |
| There are many US postal collection mailboxes seen throughout the film. All of which display an eagle emblem. In 1962 the USPS seal was the image of a rider on a horse with saddlebags filled with mail. It was not until 1970 that the bald eagle became the symbol of the USPS. |
| At 02:34 on the DVD, A brown AMC Gremlin was parked at the curb. AMC did not introduce the Gremlin until April 1, 1970. |
| At Mels Drive-in, a member of the Roadrunner Car Club was sporting long British-style sideburns and a Beatle's-style haircut which didn't become popular until 1964 when the Beatles first came to America to play on the Ed Sullivan Show. |
| Throughout the film many store windows can be seen displaying the VISA or Master Charge logo. At the time neither one of these credit cards existed, however there was a Bank of America bank card company in 1962. Master Charge was first introduced on the east coast in 1965, while the Interbank Card Association, which later became Master Charge, was formed on the west coast in 1966. |
| At 11:45 on the DVD and throughout the film, there are mod-style 1970's clothes on display in the windows at Macys Dept.Store |
| At 1:04, Hank Anderson is holding two stainless steel containers containg plastic straws. In 1962, wound wax paper drinking straws were still in use. |
| At 1:13, when Carol tells Bob Falfa that his car is uglier than she is, a light blue early 70's Mustang Sports Back model can be seen parked along the curb. |
