Looks like a Mk.1 Ford Cortina with the CND rear lights but I'm struggling to see how it could pull a trailer that size.

English Ford Cortina, 1967. The one I drove was a coupe that had a very nice Lotus engine. It could sure pull that trailer. I think trailers are called caravans over there.

Yeah, a Lotus Cortina could pull it but they were only 2 door. We do call them caravans.

Can you believe that this car actually had a "rear seat" LOL? I remember the first Consumer Reports' write-up of it back in the 1970s. They said getting into the back seat was virtually impossible, even for children.

Wow, lot's of money spent restoring those.
Don't know what half of them are, obviously vintage.
But, if I had the land and somewhere to build a long carport for shelter, I think pulling up an any of those to a local car show would be a blast.

Bonus for the trailer to hang out in all day.

That's an early-50s Hudson Hornet.






1950 Buick Special Coupe





1948 Buick Roadmaster Coupe






Not totally sure, but I believe a 1937 Packard Cabriolet.
