It might be a 1965 Chevrolet Impala as I can make out the letters IMP near her right leg.

Ah, you have better eyes than I do at this age. I was thinking that was a busted-up emblem, but you're probably right. THANKS!
 
I found a lot of pictures of Impala SS models from the era and they have a script-style "SuperSport" in that location. But the plainer-Jane Impala (which the amateur model here certainly isn't) had block lettering "IMPALA" and the emblem with the African antelope just behind the fenderwell.
 
So it's probably a GM "B" and not an "A." The only A-body in the photo is the young lady.

1937-38 Willys, rare then and much less common today.

My uncle says this is a 32 Pontiac Roadster, but googling that doesn't show a car this small. It looks to be a convertible.

don't think it's a 32 Pontiac...I don't see landau bars for the top.
 
 Why do people always stand in the EXACT place I need to look at to identify a car?
