historic site vehicles - fifth post

[Preston Hull]

OK, this might be my last post unless I get my hands on some more old photos. These might be tough because the views are bad.

 

I am mainly interested in the car on the left in the photo with all the trees. However, there is another vehicle just barely visible on the right of that photo--I included one other photo that might be that same second car in the garage, but still hard to see.

On the left in the trees is a 1936 Ford. On the right and in the garage is a 1942-48 Ford. The tractor might be a Farmall.

Definitely! A Farmall F-20

Nice! Thanks. Just curious, what gives the 40s Ford away in the little bit that you can see?

I see the horizontal, stainless strips on the trunk, the license plate placement and the bumper guards match this 1946 Ford....

Thanks, that's great. Found one more photo—Forgive my ignorance, but are either of these the same cars? Pay no attention to the dog riding the horse.

In a word, no.

 

The two cars are Ford, a '39(?) closest and a '37 (?).
