Not 100% positive but I think the one on the far left is a late 40's
maybe 46-48, Hudson.

Peter,
I would agree with the others.
Car on the left is a Hudson, '46/'47/'48.
Middle car is a '46/'47/'48 DeSoto.
White car is (I think) a '40 Buick (I am fairly sure it is
from General Motors, so it may be a Pontiac or Oldsmobile).
Truck is '46/'47/'48 International, maybe KB5 or KB6.
Where is "Earl's Grocery"?

The middle car is indeed a '46-'48 De Soto S-11, but not just ANY old De Soto sedan, this is the long-wheelbase Suburban Carryall ! (Note the roof rack)
But wait, there's more...it's also two-tone !
The car to the left does have a Hudson look to it; the one on the right: '39-'40 Buick or La Salle ?
For the truck, I was going to suggest a Dodge, but the pic is too fuzzy for me to be sure...could be a D or K series IHC...

The DeSoto looks like the one used on Happy Days, Richie's dads.

The Hudson is a '41 or '42. The bumper ends are wrong for the post-war car.

I think the GM car is a '40 Buick. There should be a Buick-Eight badge above license plate that isn't visible in the photo, but the taillights are definitely not Olds or LaSalle, and there's no Pontiac Silver Streaks either.
