Ford's Australian arm invented the "ute" back in the 1930s, and there it occupied the segment that was filled by pickup trucks here.
The Herald, like a lot of oddball foreign cars might not have been an everyday sight in the early 60s but they weren't all that rare either. After all, first generation of Compact "import fighters" was launched by the Big 3 in 1960 to counter growing sales of cars like the Volkswagen Bug and Renault Dauphine. The sheer variety of different imports of various sizes and mechanical layouts available in the early-mid 1960's has never been matched before or since. I think of it as a Golden Age.
The MoPar is a '63 Plymouth Fury. I can't make out whether the Ford Wagon is a '61 or '62.

Blue oval and labels says it's a Ford MiniWagon?
No clue on that last one. Some chinese knock off?
I am pretty sure the Ford is a 61. it has small ornaments on the tops of the fenders, I don't think a 62 had these.
This '62 has fender ornaments>

I have always used the side trim as the way to distinguish 61 from 62, along with lack of fins, if one is unable to view the grille.

I'm not familiar with the Rondo, but I think that was sold here as a Karens, which is a bit bigger.
Second one is indeed a Ford - it's badged as a Festiva Miniwagon, and would appear to be a JDM version - this one was never sold in UK either and I've only ever seen this one here which I presume was a grey import..
Third one was sold here - it's a Daihatsu Grand Move - the facelifted 1998 version.
It looks really tasty with that bed & the Panasports. I'd buy one!
Ward Cleaver and Fred Rutherford had the same license plate on their cars! What was it?
written on the side of the headlight fairing. In 1961 they did IF they had the little ornament on top of the fender. The station wagon in the picture has something written on the side of the headlight so that indicates it's a 61.
I don't recall seeing a Ford in that pink color of the 62 in this picture. Mary Kay?
2014 Malibu 2LT, 2015 Cruze 2LT,
Whoa, down boy... That particular car is a 390 rated at 300HP in A/T form. There was no "405" fender flash, the badge actually read "406" even though the actual displacement was 405.1 and the rated Horsepower was indeed 405 for engines equipped with three 2 barrel carbs, the more common 4v versions were rated at 385hp. HP ratings published by mfr's in those days tended to be rather generous.
One more thing, the crossed checkered flags were used on Chevy's engine badges but Ford used a Thunderbird motif for their performance engines except on Falcons and Mustangs.
Here's the ad stating that the car is a 390, painted in factory Sand Shell Beige. :shades:

I am well familiar with the crossed checkered flags used by Chevy. The checkered flags on the 62 Galaxie are on each side of the eagle's head with the "390", or "406" on the eagle.
I enjoy all of your posted pictures. Good work.
They probably gave some exotic name to that color, like "bleached salmon" or something. :P Well, okay, "Sand Shell Beige" does sound a bit more marketable!
WAG- TVR Tasmin?
Pretty sure that's a Gen IV VW Golf behind it. :sick:

There's a 64 Chevy wagon in front of the 57, and something old and Mopar looking directly behind the person behind the cab. The big truck in the background look like a Dodge.
I want to say I know what that is in front of the Ghia, but I just can't pin it down.
.... right up there with the Honda Life Dunk, the Isuzu Giga Dump and the Honda That's :P
Wow not bad for a WAG!

Correct on the '63 Chevy wagon and I believe you are right about that being a Volvo 240 in front of the VW K-G. The cab is a '64 Dodge. I can't see enough of the
behind the taxi except that I'm sure it's an early 50s MoPar. Just visible behind the right C-post of the taxi is what looks like a '58-'60 Thunderbird.
Dodge truck and '65 Ford Galaxie are all correct.
