Desperate Mission - Germán Cobos (1965) - More Kai Tak Airport

I thought the airport scene was worthy of two posts because as Z-55 arrives at Hong Kong he is framed for smuggling precious jewels and has to do a runner from the local police. So he steals a truck and drives away from the airport. The sequence is a mixture of sound stage set (jumping out of the police office window) and on-location footage.

Checkout the VW vans for the hotels. The August Moon Hotel was a real hotel on Kimberley Road in TST. I wonder if this is the same vehicle?
