fintail ◊ 2006-12-01 02:15	The coupe with people sitting on it looks like a 1941 Buick
landrover1 ◊ 2006-12-01 05:16	the black car with the open door is a ford 1948 i think...
56Chevy ◊ 2006-12-01 19:36	I think the black one with open door looks more like a '40 Ford with some kind of grille guard on the bumper, and the blue-green one on the left looks like a '36 Ford maybe?
wrenchhead ◊ 2007-03-11 02:26	I agree with the 41 buick

The famed Pontiac "Silverstreak" on the hood is just barely visible, but it is there. Also the fender cap extension on the right door is correct for a '42 (and '46-'48) Pontiac but not a '41 Buick. The black 2-door sedan directly behind the Pontiac is a '41 Chevy.
