    I'm usually pretty good at identifying the cars in these pictures. Here I recognize the Econoline van followed by the 66 Chevy wagon, and the 69 Falcon is is easilly recognizable, but whats the white car on the right? There are several cars from the 60's that it could be based on vertical tail lights with back up lights below the tail light lens. Valiants used variations of that arrangement from 64 up to 73. The 67 Comet and 68-69 Montego used that arrangement, and then theres the 66-67 Chevy Nova. The picture isn't quite crisp enough for me to ID this one. Any ideas? Maybe its something European like a Rover. It doesn't look like its any bigger than the Falcon, so its not a Lincoln or any other big car. The back bumper just doesn't look familiar to me.

    Good to see you guys are still posting GREAT, old pictures here. I love this thread more than any other I think. :thumbs2:

    I sold my Olds wagon this past summer, so now I'm wagonless again. But I'll get another one. I really wanted that big Merc wagon that got away from me back in the Spring. Oh well I guess...... Wasn't meant to be.

    See ya 'round fellas.

    That was going to be my guess. Valiant.
    To me it looks to have the right look to be a Valiant.

    Oh man, to have that whole row of cars sitting in my back yard right now, in the condition they are in - the stuff dreams are made of for car guys. I wonder when we pass on to that next parallel universe at the end of our time here if we can make this request?
