Black wagon in the background. Or if you see something thats more interesting. |

Bumper looks like mid-'60s Chevelle. |

I believe the car directly behind the convertible is a '65 Buick; behind and to the left of that is a '61 Pontiac. The taxi behind the wagon is likely a '65 Tempest. -- Last edit: 2008-05-21 00:04:31 |

'66 Olds Cutlass Wagon, Vista Cruiser I guess? |

I think the car directly behind the convertible is a '64 Chevrolet, not a Buick. The wagon I think is a '66 Oldsmobile F-85 (it doesn't appear to have the Vista Cruiser roof)(also, there were no Cutlass wagons in '66). -- Last edit: 2008-05-21 01:09:06 |

I agree. |

No hard feelings, but how many Pontiac taxicabs has anyone seen from this era? Taxiguy can help me with this, but the same economies of scale operated as do now. Non-Checker cabs were either Dodge/Plymouth, Chevrolet, or Ford (Studebaker had several units in the 1950s as well). Pontiac or Buick just wouldn't be able to compete in the ultra-low price field. These fleet vehicles were sold to be used by both cab companies and law enforcement, with different powertrains available for each purpose. Hope this helps. I'm nowhere near anybody of importance here, but it has been suggested that words such as "I think" or the use of the "?" question mark will help administrators know whether or not to make a change to the page. Oftentimes, a user may use the phrase "100% sure" to indicate the confidence level within a post. Sorry if this is too long. Keep playing everyone and have fun! -- Last edit: 2008-05-21 08:21:36 |

My first thought seeing those stacked headlights was Pontiac. '66 Ford is also possible. -- Last edit: 2008-05-21 16:06:26 |

Yeah, that's a better fit. -- Last edit: 2008-05-21 16:09:48 |

Here's one! /vehicle_11959-Pontiac-Parisienne-1966.html I have seen this movie long ago and if I remember well, the car right behind it is a '65 Buick Wildcat Custom hardtop coupe, my favourite model! |
