TerryB Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 This is a real photo postcard for Whirl’s End State Park in PA, now known as World’s End State Park. From 1936 to 1943 it was known by the Whirl’s End name due to the whirlpool created by the creek that flows through the park (thats your PA history lesson for the day). Ok, so now we move on to the task of naming the year and make of the cars in the photo. One is easy, the rest might take a little work. I like these period photos as they show the cars in their natural use state. No wide white walls, no excess ornamentation, not much paint shine, just everyday wear and tear condition. Enjoy!

The 55er Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 Second from left is a 1938 Chevrolet, third one from left behind the tree is a 1936 Plymouth. I'll leave the other two to the pre-war experts! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TerryB Posted August 10, 2019 Author Share Posted August 10, 2019 Third from left looks like 1936 Dodge from the hood ornament. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 55er Posted August 10, 2019 Share Posted August 10, 2019 I think you guys are right about the third one being a 1936 Dodge. I'll officially (or unofficially!) retract my identification statement from the previous post. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The far left car and far right car are tough in that they are only partial views Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Henderson Posted August 10, 2019 Share Posted August 10, 2019 # 4 might also be a chevy, it almost looks like the trim line that goes from the hood's side downward into the middle of the door is there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
