      Anyway, John Clary, that does look like a 1951 or 1952 Packard fifth car down on the left. The car appears to have rounded upper corners on the windshield, whereas a 1953 or 1954 model would have squared-off upper corners on the windshield.

      Also in that picture is the most popular 1958 Ford: A Custom 300 Tudor. Usually, a 4-door model (or Fordor in Ford parlance) is a top-selling model of any make or model, other than specialty cars. But in 1958, Ford sold 173,441 Custom Tudors (the one up front on the left side), but only 163,366 Custom Fordors.

      Again, Joe; great picture. 'Glad to see you have it worked out because your finds or so interesting...and prolific! BP
      Well, it cuts down the sources for pictures but at least I can post something now and then.
