Chevy's Nomad is best known in it's '55-'57 two-door form, but for 1958 the name was applied to Chevy's top line four door wagons. This is a '60 (I think). The reflection is of Union Pacific 6930, one of EMD's Centennial locomotives.
By 1959 the fin craze was starting to die down a bit. For that year, Chevy's Impala practically laid them flat, as if they'd started to droop in the sun. With those teardrop taillights, it's unmistakable.
You know, fins on cars really were a rather daft styling cue. But I love them.
The Bronco is probably best known from the O.J. Simpson chase back in '94, by which time it was simply a mid sized SUV. But the original Broncos were meant to compete with the much smaller Jeep CJ series. They're pretty cool trucks, and certainly capable off road-they were popular competitors in events such as the Baja 500.
This was attached to the back of a Ford Model A. It was a nicely presented car, with some great period accessories and vintage license plates. However, I don't know what sort of research the car was used for.
