Is this in Canada? The 1959 Ford station wagon trim does not look like United States issue, and I'm not familiar with Flo-Glaze paints. BP

I'll bet its a Meteor, not a Ford.

Did a google search on Sally Shops; they sell health and beauty aids, started in 1956 and are in California.

Looks like a '40 Commander or President, and looks like a Willys to the left it. Do we know what city this is?

I wish I knew what city this is. I found it without any explanation.

Oops, back to my comment on picture # 6954: I misread your description and was looking at the row further back. I do agree that the second car from the left in the front row is a Studebaker, with a Willys parked beside it.

Junior Thompson’s long tow rewarded the SoCal gasser star with dual success in the B/Gas class (shown) and a brand-new eliminator category, only NHRA’s second. Trophy winners in the top three Gas Coupe/Sedan trophy classes squared off to determine a Little Eliminator. A supercharged Chevy pushed Junior’s ’41 Studebaker to low-13s at 104-plus.

The city is Victoria , BC . The car to the right of the Studebaker is a Ford Prefect. We called them Defects!

This photo was taken in San Francisco in 1920, but the year of the Studebaker touring car was not given.
