Jerry Van Vactor General I think the date would be fall 1958 or later. The 3rd car from the right is a 1959 Chevy and in those days the new models didn't come out until the fall. 57 Chev, 56 Plymouth, 59 Chevy. Not sure about the 4th car 8/19/2009 9:40:45 PM
Spencer Wagen General Thank you! I found these in an envelope of my grandfather's old pictures and aside from a description of the photo there was no date of the picture 8/20/2009 12:38:14 PM
Jerry Van Vactor General The 4th car from the right could possibly be a 1960 Mercury. Not absolutely sure on that one, though. The headlights and bumper seem to match the Mercury Monterey model closely. 8/20/2009 11:25:58 PM
