 Not a Farm-O-Road http://www.lanemotormuseum.org/collection/cars/item/crosley-farm-o-road-1951

Was thinking possibly a Hot Shot but not that either Link to "www.bing.com"

 I remember somewhere in the picture automobile or Collectible Automobile show some sort of Midget (company) from the late Forties or the Fifties, but I can't find it in the Internet yet :think:

 Suburb of Las Vegas? That's where they arrived with the trucks.

 'Midget' (correct brand) 'King Midget Model 3' (type)
or
'King Midget' (brand) 'Model 3' (type).

 Nearly 5000 made 1957-70. One of the "50 Worst Cars of All Time".
