Too bad the early 60s were 30 years before I reached driving age. Coming of age when most kids were driving malaise era junk was no fun.
 
I am pretty sure the Ford is a 61. it has small ornaments on the tops of the fenders, I don't think a 62 had these.

Doh!
 
I have always used the side trim as the way to distinguish 61 from 62, along with lack of fins, if one is unable to view the grille.

The first one is a Kia, but it's a Joice, which I wasn't familiar with, as it was never sold in UK - turns out there are a few in Germany though, where I saw this one, so it would seem it was sold there and probably elsewhere in LHD Europe. Here's the back ( the grey ghost is a pigeon)
 
I'm not familiar with the Rondo, but I think that was sold here as a Karens, which is a bit bigger.
 
Second one is indeed a Ford - it's badged as a Festiva Miniwagon, and would appear to be a JDM version - this one was never sold in UK either and I've only ever seen this one here which I presume was a grey import..
 
Third one was sold here - it's a Daihatsu Grand Move - the facelifted 1998 version.

The front of the bright green ute looks like a Datsun 1200 (the name that model carried in the US as a step below our B210). I assume it was called 'Cherry' elsewhere?
 
It looks really tasty with that bed & the Panasports. I'd buy one!

And, for 10 extra points.....
Ward Cleaver and Fred Rutherford had the same license plate on their cars! What was it?

It's a 62 Ford Galaxie 500/XL. The emblem behind the front wheel has two checker flags with "405" between them. This car had 405 horsepower!
