The new 2024 Mustang. Looking good.

That rear fender line sure looks a LOT like the Camaro's.

The 2024 Ford Mustaro!

I like the sharp eyes on that pic.

the Ramcharger on top of the pile was too easy.

Looks like a 75 or 76 F150 in the dirt, atop an early square body GM... maybe a 75 as well?

Truck behind the dirt looks like a Nissan hardbody

I was thinking a Dakota pickup, but it's hard to say from that particular angle. An earliest of the early run on that model, which would date the image to circa 1987.

I'm very disappointed in the new Mustang which doesn't have the panache or agressive style of the S550 (2014-21 version). If there wasn't a pony in that grille it could be anything and six eyes on a 'Stang ugh!

The interior might be worse.

Unknown location, appears to be mid-1960s. Expands very well. Lots of stuff to see here. I'll take the blue Sunliner convertible.

andys120

Green car bottom middle appears to be a Triumph Herald, black Studebaker Lark to its left.

tmart

Which blue Sunliner ? Assuming you mean the 60, but I think there’s also a 52/54 one too. 57 Ford, 58 Ford wagon, couple of 59 Fords, 58/60 Thunderbird, twos 60 Falcons, a wagon and just a hood. A VW Beetle, 59 Chevy, a Corvair.

I think that green car in the lower left is a circa 1959/60 Rambler American

Look at all the blue cars. It’s like 30% of the picture. Today there would be two or three at most.

Of course!

Cool pic, great point in time with a mix of clean 60s designs 50s material that hadn't decayed too much. Must be 1966 at least with the Caprice coupe beside the white Falcon wagon (2 door!) pulling out. I see the nose of a blue 60 Galaxie at lower left beside what might be the lone import, a Beetle. 61 Country Squire driving away at center top is a rare car today.

Looks like the white Falcon wagon had a minor fender bender, bowed out front fender.

explorerx4

Two cars have bubblegum machines on the top. The blue 65 Ford police car and the wagon with the blue sides and white hood, roof and tailgate.

'66 blue Valiant by the blue cop and a '63 white Valiant convertible to the right.

ab348

I'm curious about the compact convertible, white with a black top, on the right side of the pic between a '64 Ford and a mid-'50s Buick?

texases

That's one of the Valiants I mentioned.

Ah, now I understand why I didn't recognize it. Up here, Valiants of that vintage used Dodge Dart rear ends with round taillights.

Funny, I first searched for a Dart, then saw the taillights were wrong!

andys120

There's plenty of 1965 MY cars but I don't see anything newer. I think the oldest unit might be the two tone 53-54 blue Mopar near the police car.

All those wheels and only a single (Chevy) pickup!

ab348

I believe there is a '66 Chevelle at the far end next to a '65(?) Ford, and I see what I believe is a '66 Caprice 2-door next to the Falcon wagon that is pulling out.

explorerx4

I agree about the 66 Caprice. The green 59 Ford to the left front of the Falcon wagon also has a crunched right front fender.

andys120

Fl;attops!

Yes it's worth mentioning that the '61 is the Tempest barely visible on the right.

1960 Buick LeSabre Cruising vessel.

Black 1957 Olds convertible and taillight of a 1960 Mercury visible ahead of Buick flattop.

The roofline on the car in front of the black 1957 Olds convertible looks familiar.

Nope, you're off by a couple of years. Those are 1965 Stingrays. The red one has the hood bump indicating the most powerful motor, IIRC a 427 that year.

The green car looks like one I saw Luci Baines Johnson driving around the Georgetown U campus in fall '65.

stickguy

still nice!

The upper surfaces are blue from reflections of the sky but the areas below the side crease are decidely green on my screen.

Still appears blue on my iPad. Oh well.

Now that is a green car!

Curse you, andys120. Down the flank it looks like a Morris Minor but the headlights are faired completely into the fenders. Is it some bigger brother of the Minor? It’s not an Oxford.
