They kept the shot because it was the best take and used a clever trick. On the soundtrack, they added the sound of an old 1950s car driving past. It's subtle but it's there. The shot only lasts for a moment but Curtis figured it worked and most people missed it.

Looks like a 1950 Studebaker to me.
