Okay, my roommate is hoping you car wizards can identify these vintage rides from these photos. Might be easy for some of you, might be impossible. Give it your best shot. I eliminated the easiest one with my superb knowledge and the fact that the name was in the photo. The rest are for you superior car guys. Thanks in advance

I think that the first is a Plymouth or dodge, 40's or 50's, the second is a punch buggy and the 3rd is a Jaguar

Second from bottom looks kinda like corvette to me.

1958 - 1962 Corvette.

The last one is a 1956 Buick Riviera Special.

I wish I had a car that labeled me "special"...

Ghosts wake me up at night.

The second pict is a flying quail ornament on a Ford Model A between 1928-1931, with optional stone guard attached.

1958 - 1960 actually; the 1961-62 had body color headlight bezels.

Doing great guys, really appreciate the help. She will have more pics later. Maybe I can get her to send a batch of cookies to the person that identifies the most.

58-60 Vette, agree bezels changed 61-62, but you could still order them with the chrome bezels then.

55-56 Buick Special - maybe 57, as I'm not sure if they changed the badge lettering in 57 or 58, but I think it was 57, & maybe 54 was this way too.
