Stick 'em up! Not much to go on here, but based on wheels / fender & body bead / hinge placement I think Gramps' moonshine runner could well be a circa 1926 Buick #DavesCarIDService
Meanwhile, on the other side of the Prohibition laws: the car carrying Untouchable Eliot Ness is giving me fits, due to its unusual combo of features. Best I can venture is a 1927 Hupmobile, but not with a lot of confidence. I welcome a definitive ID
before you rush in with your wild guesses, the unusual feature combo that need to match are the cantilevered visor (pegging it as a 26-27) + 6 lug rim wood wheels +cylindrical headlight buckets + bead on door. Usually indicates Nash, but this isn't one.
Finally an easy one: 1960 Chevy El Camino, nicely customized.
Your dad was rightfully proud of his 1937 Chevy Master 2-door sedan
Another 1937 Chevy at its final desert resting place, this one a 5 window coupe. 1937-38 Chevys had the handsome streamline crease/character line on the door but alas by 1939 it was gone
*hopefully not its final resting place, the desert-preserved tin makes it a dandy candidate project for a hot rod or custom
For comparison, here's a 1939 Chevy Master coupe sans the door crease; mildly hot rodded with Torq Thrust D wheels. Not a bad looking car but no match for the 37-38s IMHO
This alluring beach daredeviltress appears to be astride a circa 1938-40 Harley Davidson UL. Both cars and motorcycles were affected by the Streamline Deco trend
Speaking of Streamline Deco, I've been waiting for an ID requests for one of these for a long time. Behold a 1934-5 Chrysler Airflow, louvers say Canadian made CY model. The most audaciously Deco mass market car of that age.
It was a ballsy move for Chrysler & DeSoto to go with this bleeding edge design in 1934, but sadly it was a sales disaster, and the Airflow experiment ended after 1938. Kudos to Rodger's dad for daring to be different.
Bonus Airflow of the Day: the Kingfisher is standing in front of a 1935 DeSoto Airflow. In the days before car A/C, pop-out windows were a must for politicking through Louisiana
This one is a fanciful, nicely done "what if" custom, a 1938 Ford Deluxe car front end (fenders, hood, etc) on a 1938-41 Ford pickup. I'm guessing a 38-39, because those trucks were pretty ugly stock
1957 Ford Thunderbird, and a fine photo it is indeed
Cheat sheet for distinguishing 55-57 two seat "Baby Bird" T-Birds:
1955: plain jane with small rounded fins
1956: similar to 55, but with Continental kit rear spare & front fender vents
1957: peaked/canted tailfins
1955: plain jane with small rounded fins
1956: similar to 55, but with Continental kit rear spare & front fender vents
1957: peaked/canted tailfins
Either a 65 or 66 with the big block hood bulge; need more visual to nail exact year
Probably the biggest influence on Ferdinand Porsche's design of the VW Beetle was the Chech-made Tatras of the 1930s. Rear engine, streamlined, etc.
For example, here is a 1933 Tatra V570, which the VW design seems to have plagiarized. 
Old timey trucks aren't really my wheelhouse but lack of radiator + right hand drive +brass lamps seems consistent with 1909ish International Harvester Autowagon. As always, happy to be corrected
Definitely not a Whippet, but very consistent with circa 1920 Willys-Overland touring. Willys-Overland introduced the small/light Whippet line in 1927
1937 Packard, stopping at Tye's for a refreshing Dr Pepper
This prehistoric snowmobile / tank started life as 1920-24 Ford Model T turtledeck roadster
Closing out today's episode of #DavesCarIDService with the exciting sport of Iowa Dutch Gun Club Auto Pushball, in which the contestants all appear to be based on 1928-31 Ford Model A chassis.
