Auto Antics features the final appearance of Eugene Porky Lee, who was dismissed from the series after growing significantly taller to the point that he became taller than George Spanky McFarland during Our Gangs first year at MGM. Robert Blake, who had just replaced Gary Jasgar as the tagalong toddler, assumed the role vacated by Porky at the beginning of Our Gangs 193940 season of shorts.Darla Hood became ill during the filming of Auto Antics. One shot features the kids hanging on to the back of the dogcatchers truck as it starts down the road.
