The front of the Pronto resembled that of the Plymouth Prowler. The Pronto also featured a roll-back fabric top. The Pronto never went into production, but its design inspired two more concept cars, the Plymouth Pronto Spyder and the Plymouth Pronto Cruizer. The Pronto's design also inspired that of the Chrysler PT Cruiser, which did go into production in 2001. Had the Plymouth marque not been discontinued, the PT Cruiser would have been sold as a Plymouth.

Kodak Retinette is the name of a classic series of cameras manufactured by the Eastman Kodak company. They were introduced in 1939 as a less expensive alternative to the Kodak Retina series. The first models were of the folding type using bellows and their lenses had three elements as compared to the four element Tessar lenses of the Retina series. The first non-folding (rigid) variant was introduced in 1954 with the model 022. They most often featured Schneider Kreuznach Reomar lenses but, sometimes, Rodenstock Reomar lenses were installed. The Rodenstock lenses were based on the original Schneider Kreuznach triplet design. Kodak Anastigmat Angénieux lenses were also used especially for the French market. Common shutters included Compur–Rapid as well as various Pronto, Vero and Kodak models.
A Prontor-Compur connection is a standard 3.5 mm (1/8") electrical connector used in photography to synchronize the shutter to the flash.
