Can anyone tell me what cars these are?
Picture was taken March 7th 1955, in the town I was born in. The two that are turning left look like the same model(?), one a coupe and one a sedan(?). Can anyone tell me make/model/year?

1953 Ford Customlines? Matches the trim and body style. I may be off on the year.
Model started in 1952 and had large production runs, according to Wikipedia. |

'52/'53 Ford Customlines. These things were quite common in Australia in my pre-teen years before the Australian motor industry really got rolling.

Agreed. The coupe is a 52. The sedan is a 52 or 53. My dads first car was a 52 Ford.

The panel with the side mounted spare is pretty cool.
