Appears to be a Cheetah body. You could put those on Corvette frames.

That was the first thing I noticed, but do you think its worth adding to the site? I mean its not that visible. However I guess it could be listed as a background car… :think:

That's why I ask to no_car if there is a better view. Maybe that at a time it is in the centre of the picture and then more visible.

The gray car in the foreground looks like a 1959 Ford Thunderbird.

The yellow car looks like some sort of Ferrari 250 Testa Rossa race car

The 250 TR (Testa Rossa) Spider Scaglietti appeared end 1957, and if that yellow thing is a 250 TR, then I need to change my poles of interest and to remain concentrated only on very special stuff as, f.i., Fiat Panda's and Alfa 33's... ;)

I didn't say that it was that one, it is just that the style is vaguely similar :D

Has some Testa Rossa styling cues: headrest, hood "bump", swept-under fenders. Shape of the nose does match a Cheetah*, but nothing else does. It could be one of the many home-built sports racing cars popular in the USA in the mid-1960s.

*there were no Cheetah "bodies" for Covette framess...the Cheetah was a purpose-built race car with little in common with a Corvette except the Chevrolet V8. Only a handful were built before the shop they came from suffered a catastrophic fire. Few examples survive today. No Cheetahs were produced as open-cockpit cars, but at least one example was convered to a roadster during its racing career.

And the T-bird is a 1957

The yellow car is an Ol' Yaller (or Yeller) Mark III, built by the Californian racing car specialist Max Balchowsky:
