Figured I'd add this here. In this shot, we see Smokey (the Hudson Pickup that's already listed), along with three other characters who are based on NASCAR legends.

River Scott (I believe that's the one with the 34 on the side), inspired by Wendell Scott, the only African-American to date to win a NASCAR Cup race, Louise "Barnstormer" Nash, inspired by Louise Smith, who secretly snuck her husband's Ford coupe into the beach race in Daytona in 1947, only to wreck it, and Junior "Midnight" Moon, inspired by and voiced by Junior Johnson.

Not particularly. I'd say the first one of the three cars (other than Smokey, already listed) should be the one this gets listed as, and then we wait for alternate shots of the other two, so we can give them their own pages.

It's just a matter of which gets identified first, that's all. (:

That's why I didn't put a box around any of them. We've had ones like this before on live action series, and once one car is properly identified, it's marked as the subject vehicle.

1949/'50 Nash, 1940 Ford with a '39 grille, and a 1933/'34 Willys. :)

Maybe that is a '40 grille; I can't see how wide the middle is. Here's Junior with the real Midnight Moon car.

Louise "Barnstromer" Nash is probably meant to be a Nash Ambassador.

Yes, Louise Smith is her prototype

Well, is something wrong with different vehicles having the same shot? Of course only as long as we won't have better pics.

The car on the right is a Willys. He's just a 1933 model.
