| 1951 Packard 250 Convertible [2431] Inventing the Abbotts (1997) |
Commander 57  | Could be a '52 as cannot make out any hood ornament. From this angle, you could only tell by the wings on the hood ornament (pointing up on the '51's; pointing back on the '52's). |

| 1947 Studebaker Commander Regal De Luxe [15A] Inventing the Abbotts (1997) |
Commander 57 | DynaMike is correct about the rear door stone guards, but that is only true for Regal Deluxe Commanders. Non-convertible Champion Regal Deluxe models carried rubber guards. 1947 style rear bumper guards. Note also Commander style rear taillamp overlays. (The lenses themselves were actually one piece and made of glass.) Nicely showcased car and well presented in the photos. (Wish all the cars on this site could be so well depicted!) -- Last edit: 2010-02-19 19:47:57 |

| 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air Nomad [2429] Inventing the Abbotts (1997) |
juformc  | At first I thought it was a Handyman, but no. It's a Nomad, but it lacks the wings of the front mudguard. See the rear glass and the Paral door. -- Last edit: 2009-07-31 19:00:38 |

| 1957 Cadillac Coupe DeVille Inventing the Abbotts (1997) |
mrcadillac  | The rear seat trim shows that it os NOT the Series 62, but the "DeVille", so 1957 "Coupe de Ville" (200% sure). | 2009-01-04 04:06 | |
| 1959 Cadillac Sedan DeVille [6329L] Inventing the Abbotts (1997) |
mrcadillac | I agree with "Animatronixx". The front driver door trim (in one of the smaller images) gives the model away as a 6-window "Sedan de Ville". | 2009-01-04 04:02 | |

| 1959 Mercury Park Lane Two-Door Hardtop [63C] Inventing the Abbotts (1997) |
DynaMike  | According to my info the name 'Cruiser' was only used in 1960 for hardtops. | 2009-01-03 14:05 | |
| 1959 Mercury Park Lane Two-Door Hardtop [63C] Inventing the Abbotts (1997) |

vilero  | Just posted my last answer I have visited this page http://www.yesterdayschevrolet.com/ and more specifically this one http://www.yesterdayschevrolet.com/57postcards.htm and, as you say, Ddey65 was right from the beginning |

| 1959 Cadillac Sedan DeVille [6329L] Inventing the Abbotts (1997) |
Animatronixx  | Educated guess, based on the presence of an Autronic Eye: Sedan de Ville. | 2009-01-02 14:23 | |
| 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air Nomad [2429] Inventing the Abbotts (1997) |
Ddey65 | This doesn't even have a C-pillar. Every other Chevy Wagon did. That 3 finger chrome is probably blocked by the glare in the window? And can't everybody else tell it has a slanted rear window, and a bump on the roof near the front doors? |

| 1959 Cadillac Sedan DeVille [6329L] Inventing the Abbotts (1997) |
vilero | Checking 1959 Cadillacs 6200 Series and DeVille (sub-series 6300)I see in the "collage" thumbnail that it's a 6 window sedan. So it could be a Series 62 4-door 6-window [6229K] http://motorera.com/cadillac/cad1950/1959/59sedan62.jpg or a Series 63 Sedan DeVille 4-door 6-window [6329L] http://motorera.com/cadillac/cad1950/1959/59sdv6.jpg Comments? |

| 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air Nomad [2429] Inventing the Abbotts (1997) |
DynaMike | Thanks, Vilero, for this research. Btw, the 4-door wagon wasn't a Handyman, it was called Townsman (or Beauville if it had three rows of seats). | 2009-01-02 11:56 | |
| 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air Nomad [2429] Inventing the Abbotts (1997) |
vilero | After checking Nomads and 210, let's call it as 210 Handyman 2 doors. As rjluna2 says "..and I don't see 3 finger chrome on the front fender" and that was one of the differences. See here a 1957 Nomad http://www.stationwagon.com/gallery/1957_Chevy_Nomad.html and here http://www.autoclasico.com.mx/Resources/articulos/chevycar/Chevy57_06g.jpg and later a Two-Ten Handyman here http://www.stationwagon.com/gallery/1957_Chevy_210.html (4 doors) and here http://www.autoclasico.com.mx/Resources/articulos/chevycar/Chevy57_15g.jpg (2 doors). As you can see the Two-Ten doesn't has these 3 cromed fingers on its side and just near the headlights. |

| 1941 Dodge ½-Ton Pickup [WC] Inventing the Abbotts (1997) |
vilero | I have just read this from http://www.pickuptrucks.com/html/history/segment5.html "...the horizontal chrome bars on the lower grille are found only on 1941 and 1942 model trucks. The WC model designation continued through 1947". So let's call it as 1941 WC |

| 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air Nomad [2429] Inventing the Abbotts (1997) |
rjluna2 | It does looks more like Two Ten Handyman than Nomad due to white color between chrome trim and I don't see 3 finger chrome on the front fender. I really don't know if Nomad series did offer small hubcap. I can't see if the pillars are slanted or straight either. Opinion?  |

| 1954 Ford Customline Tudor Sedan [73B] Inventing the Abbotts (1997) |
DynaMike | But this is a pillared four-door sedan... According to my info, in 1954 there were 99,677 Crestline Fordors built (262,499 Customline Fordors), the first and only year that the Crestline range had a Fordor sedan as well)... A Customline Tudor would have been a [70B]. I'm still not sure what model this is, but I'm afraid I cannot agree with your comment, Pilou... |
