    My 50's car knowledge is pretty slim, but the second from the left is a .... Ford?

    Yep that's a 57 Ford 2nd from L, and it has a near twin in the pic.

    The car in the far right of the picture is an Edsel.
    Guess I'm on an Edsel roll.

    1955 ish DKW F91?

  • bhill2bhill2 Member Posts: 2,605
    Talk about contrasts, the DKW is next to a 58 Buick; probably the most baroque over-chromed example of the era..

    The red coupe is a DKW yeah, also marketed as the 3=6, I believe meaning its 3 cylinders were supposed to equal 6 cylinders. Someone was a daring free thinker to buy that in the late 50s.

    I think the front wheels on that ‘57 are Cragers.

    Port Orchard WA, 1975 - mostly rooflines, but I think several can be picked out when zoomed:

    That picture is like one of those security challenge things to prove you are a real person and not a bot that shows you only partial slivers of pictures of something and wants you to pick them out.

    My favorite - select all of the tiles with a motorcycle (no motorcycles, the only vehicle visible is a scooter).

    In this case, select the AMC and the Honda.

    Far back little white car looks like a Honda S600. Thought at first a gen 1 civic with a distorted picture.

    Roof ID is a little tough, here's an easier one. Centralia WA, 1980, after one of the later eruptions of Mt. St. Helens (cars this old were not a very uncommon sight in the PNW in the 80s):




  • tmarttmart Member Posts: 2,403

    I’d say the “white “ car is an Olds, but no idea the year.

  • Lostwrench3Lostwrench3 Member Posts: 826
    1955.
  • fintailfintail Member Posts: 58,525
    Bremerton WA 1978, some are a little small but zooms enough to ID:


  • stickguystickguy Member Posts: 53,546
    nice Torino up front. I liked that iteration (the styling at least)

    1972 Gran Torino. I thought that the GT Sportsroof was particularly attractive. The later models with the massive impact bumpers ruined the car.

    VW 412 wagon on the other side of the street. I want to say that the wagon behind it is an Audi Fox, but I'm less than certain of that.

    That Bremerton pic includes a lovely example of a 73 or 74 Econoline van.

    Let's cross the sound and visit Seattle in the early 80s, plenty to see here as it zooms fine:

    The Healey is a Mk.III. Earlier versions had no wind wings.

    Some designs haven't improved with age, IMO.

    Back to Bremerton, 1970 - not crystal clear but enough to zoom in and pick out a few:



  • texasestexases Member Posts: 11,136

    Brown Dart or Valiant left front

  • stickguystickguy Member Posts: 53,546

    Looks like a very late Golf cabrio behind the Monte Carlo.
