The "old" looking car is a Bentley R-Type or whatever they were called

Pretty good, Fin, it's a 1954 Bentley Type R, they're highly prized in the UK among the collector set. Some came with special body work but the standard Mulliner coachwork was very nice indeed=>

Easy; a Chevy Corvan, which was a van version of the rear-engine Corvair. They also made a pickup with a ramp side.

Cool
 
Speaking of car photos, Here's a really cool site devoted to the cars owned by a Swiss family over a period of about 70 years
 
Period shots are always interesting

At a first glance, this should be blatantly easy considering its name is on the hood, but there's something "special" about this car. Fintail might get it pretty quickly.

'56 Canadian Dodge. It's sort of a cross between a Dodge and Plymouth. The front is clearly Dodge, but the side chrome trim is Plymouth. The tiny (again Plymouth) fins are a tip-off that it's a '56 model.
