The first footage looks like it could be looking south on the Hollywood Freeway a little north of downtown LA. On some of the later footage I believe I saw some 1960 or 61 model year cars. Given all the mid-1950s cars I am surprised that none were colors like salmon pink, etc. that I think were popular then. Possibly whoever colorized it did not have that in the pallet they provided the software.
