Car Photo of the Day… Nice Rack!
OK Paul, name it.

some year/variant of a packard clipper?
1956-ish Mercury, methinks! Now that I’ve opened my big gob,
I should say ‘Murrican” cars ain’t my cuppa! But I tried!
Nope!! Carl was right…When I went back and looked I saw the trademark Packard “lip” in the center..Packard, indeed! Yay Carl!
Some googling shows this to be a ’56 Packard Executive, which looks like a Clipper with some extra highbrow.
..and the black car next to the Packard is a Pontiac, c. 1965 and next to that is a Corvair truck.,…;)
It is a Packard, but not any of the models described above.
Hint: In “jaguarese” it would be an “OFS”…
What, is is a Caribbean? I think Paul missed the Plastic Pacyderm sticking its nose out between the Pontiac and the truck.
Close enough Roger, technically it is a “Caribe”
The next one is a real torquer… I’d appreciate it if we can all just keep quiet and let Wiggy tackle it alone. 😉

The kind of cars Wiggy’s likely to be good at guessing are cars I probably don’t want anything to do with. 😉
Rog, given your predilection for rust-o-matics, careful where you pitch them stones…LOL!!!
At least my DKWs aren’t Flintstonesmobiles!..;) n\Not the last time I *looked* anyway….
I *did* miss the ‘Dagmar bumpers’ in ‘tween the Indian and the Packard..I’d say it’s a 1958 Cadillac Brougham, though I profess I can barely make out whether it has 2 or 4 headlights, which will change the answer!
Jeez, I’m gettin’ blinder by the DAY!
Beyond the Corvair truck is a 68-74 Sting Ray and what appears to be a Chevelle-nosed sumpin’r other! Did I get’m all?

No points for background cars this time! 😛
