I think the top one could be VERTIGO. Jimmy Stewart had a 1956 DeSoto and Kim Novak had a Jaguar like that one. I don't know the middle one but I think the bottom one is THE BIRDS. Melanie Daniels had an Aston Martin cabriolet and Mitch Brenner's mother had a pickup that she drove to her neighbour's and found his body!

Excellent John!!!

I watched some Hitchcock films in these past days and I noticed I had many of the cars that appeared and gave me the idea to make the scenes in my diorama...

That one was a DB2. It was silver or silver-green as I recall.

Here's my DB2 Vantage by Matrix.

photo no longer available

Neither this one nor your DB2/4 Mk. III are like the Birds movie car, but Matrix does make a similar DB2 (in metallic green or a white DB/2 Mk. II). The IMCdb seems to show a silver DB2 Mk. I.
