Car on the right is a '56 Clipper, the only year it wasn't a Packard Clipper.

No, it's a 1956 Buick Century or Special

Right, sorry. Didn't look at the plates close enough.

The image for the Imperial 1960 shows part of the grille. I'll leave my first comments to be of some use, though I am no longer certain. It looks like it has the "300" style of grille, but it can't be as a sedan.
ORIGINAL COMMENT:
Car on left appears to be 1957 Chrysler Saratoga [C75-2]. Its winscreen does not feature the compound curve at the top of 1958 Chrysler/De Soto. Site disallows direct image linking, see fifth photo down.

This image is of a 1958 Windsor and displays the compound-curved windscreen.

You can see a profile view of the front clip of a '57 from another imcdb page:

I am very sure the car on the left is a 1962 Chrysler Newport.

Agreed, I just didn't know the time frame of the film.

The compound-curved windscreen was part of "The Forward Look for 58." Greater visibility was a selling feature, but this was dropped due to glass distortion effects.

There's no listing for the '56 Buick Special/Century?

Do you mean theres's a quota on how many cars from one make are listed in one movie?!

No but there are already many cars listed with that picture (including a Buick of a close model, so the '56 could be mentioned there), I do not like to list lots of cars with same picture.
