Well, I recognize all the ones that can be seen clearly and have an idea of some down the line, I am old. I had a 56 Chevy while in the USAF stationed at Syracuse University (2nd photo, 2nd car in).

How much fun would it be to crawl your jeep over the line of cars..,probably not so much after the arrest and bill to fix cars!

56 Chevy El Morocco - estimated 32 produced

the guy that grafted the Caddy fins ruined them IMO — first car was a 55 Nomad with the 265 swapped for a HP solid lifter 283.

It looks a lot like the 1956 Cadillac El Dorado.

Yes- a rich guy named Alexander grafted the El Dorado fins and moldings to the quarters, also reportedly replaced the Chevy grille and bumper. ( but the grille looks very similar ?)

Named it El Morocco to keep the Caddy legal team at bay.
