Sorry, I can't do it after looking for awhile. That is an uncommon angle to search. I think the coupe is a LaSalle?

How many people would understand what someone was trying to say if they read or heard, "The sheet metal was oil canning."?

I would: from working in a steel mill, sheet metal work on race cars, and using one of those handy gadgets on my own machinery.

That "horse less" is a work of art !
Every year in October is the NewPort, Indiana "Hill Climb" (NewPort Antique Auto Club) on old highway 63. Many fine old drivable autos / trucks make the journey. Some do so in reverse (Model T's) as the drive train grips better going up hill and the gas will flow down to the engine.

Thanks, Emmett.
Aircraft is an Air Force C-123 Provider -- a twin-engined baby brother to the ubiquitous C-130 Hercules that is still in service.
Had four flights, in them, while in Viet Nam. C-123s were the aircraft used to spray Agent Orange during Operation Ranch Hand. The squadron and aircraft used in the operation were located on the opposite side of the runway from my F-100 squadron, at Phan Rang. When my first load crew chief returned to the World his severe case of shoulder acne was diagnosed as caused by exposure to Agent Orange. So far, I don't have any symptoms of the 27 diseases the V. A. recognizes as Agent Orange caused.

I pretty sure the car is a Pontiac, though don't know the model nor year, but will guess about 1953.

I think you are right, somewhere between 52 and 54.

I can identify her hat. It's that thing you see in the field behind the south end of a north bound cow.
