Hints: They're highly modified from the original configuration but the shape of the hull and the track/bogey layout should be familiar. Almost 50,000 were made.

Some Shermans saw early action in Korea but they were obsolete by the time of the photo (1953) and had been replaced by the M47 Patton as the Army's main battle tank. I have no explanation of why these were at the Port of Milwaukee apparently being loaded or unloaded to this freighter.
Factoid- 500 Shermans shipped to Alexandria, Egypt in late 1942 were said to have been instrumental in Montgomery's victory over the Afrika Korps at El Alamein. The M4 was competitive with German tanks at this stage of WWII but as Lemko pointed out later German tanks like the Panther and Tiger were far superior and the Shermans prevailed by weight of numbers.

That and the taillights stand out as unique.
I like it.
But what am I thinking, Toyota does no wrong.

Infamous? Why so?
Well, there must be hundreds of pictures of the 1954 Hudson Jet convertible in books and on the web, and they are all red because they are all of this exact same car! It was a prototype that was never put in production due to money problems.
Please.
Puegoet 206 pre-dates that Solara. They sell tons in Brazil.

Extra points if you can name the TV series this was featured in.

It is an AC Petite from about 1956. I never got the whole British fascination with three wheelers.
I think that it had a small Villers engine of about 360cc. There may have been some tax advantage to using this.
No idea on the TV series

So do it, and imitation is the sincerest form of flattery:

Maybe M-B hired the same stylist to do those tails.
Solara wasn't pretty, but it wasn't ugly either. Perhaps a bit ahead of its time?
BIGGER!

I think the first generation was. I got nothing but compliments on my 2000 V6, however, it does look dated to me now. The next generation I always liked, even with some of its quirky features.

This is posed, right? All the cars jammed in there, all of them clean, no rust.
Solara, with its stretched lenses, was twice as bad as the weird rear of the CLS. An 80K+++ car sold on the global market isn't going to imitate a modern day Monte Carlo sold in one market.
That is how this conversation started.
The photo is something of a mystery, but no I don't think it's posed, the cars are at all sorts of odd angles, it must've taken a traffic cop to get them out.
My first thought was that it was of the gas crunch of '73 that followed the Arab Oil Embargo but I don't see any 1970's automobiles there and oddly for a late 60s scene, although all sorts of make/models are represented, there's not one import.
