C'est une Studebaker Champion de 1955.

...et derrière ? Ce ne serait pas une Ford "Galaxie", année 1960-64 ?

The car behind the Studebaker is a 1960 Ford, probably a Galaxie.

Commander Deluxe coupe.
Note nameplate just visible at front of rear fenders. Champions had no such nameplates.
(President coupes only carried State trim.)

Since it has the "butter knife" trim on the sides
I'd say 1955 Commander Regal coupe

Regal trim indeed. Right you are, Michael!
(Another one I commented on before I conducted my research!)

In fact, this one might even be a President model.
(The nameplate looks a bit more like "President" doesn' it?)

Yes, Commander 57 you are probably right!
It might be a President, the script looks more
like President than Commander.

Well, let's change it then, pending dissent.

It also has the fender top ornaments I associate with the President line although as I recall, they were optionally available on Commanders as well.

Reviewed some of my notes this morning.

The only exterior difference between Commander Regal coupes/hardtops and President State coupes/hardtops is the hood ornament, rear fender nameplates and trunklid nameplates.
The President has gold-toned fender nameplates and the front portion of the hood ornament is also gold colored.
I think you can just make out the gold tone in the photo'ed car, increasing my confidence this is a President State.

(Note: ALL Presidents carried these features, not just the coupes and hardtops.)
