I wonder what the white wagon is beside the 64 Galaxie - I was thinking Datsun 510, but that's not it. Maybe a Rootes group car? Small car driving is a Datsun Bluebird, I think.

That white wagon has me stumped too. But the next 4 are all Ford; a '64 Galaxy, about a '66 Falcon, a TBird ('66 also I think) and a '57. Beyond that is a 2nd gen Corvair.

I think the white wagon is a Datsun but the taillights are wrong for a 510, perhaps a late 60s Bluebird.

What is that big dark red/maroon car way over to the left side of the picture? Looks like a big 70's Impala to me.

G'day Looks like a Datsun wagon but lights are not quite right. I wonder if it was local production under license or some sort of knock-off (popular in China and Taiwan)
Cheers

My first guess was '75 Caprice Classic, but that's too new for the pic. My best guess (and that's all it is) would be a '63-64 full-size Buick, probably an Electra 225.

Hmmm. The BB Club sign is in Korean and English. I would say the photo was taken in Korea.

Needless to say, I don't know Chinese from Korean or Swahili but someone is pretty sure that the photo is of Taiwan.

Well, at least I feel better about not recognizing that white station wagon on the right; it was probably never sold here in the US of A.
