Victorian Day 2007, Riverton, New Jersey - The Car Show

One of the photographs I showed yesterday at the Victorian Day in Riverton in June 2007 was of some of the cars lined up in Main Street for people to admire. Here are other photographs I took of  the cars and I've tried to identify each of them, but I'm not too familiar with American cars and if anyone wants to correct any of my identifications please do so.
I think this may be a 1950s Pontiac
This one I can't really hazard a guess, but some 1950s Chevrolets have similar looking grilles (although this grille didn't necessarily come with this particular vehicle)
Possibly a 1940s Plymouth
1950s Ford Fairlane Sunliner
A 1950s Chevrolet, probably a 150
1960s Pontiac (Bonneville?)
1940s Plymouth and 1950s Ford Fairlane Sunliner
1941 Ford De Luxe Coupe
Studebaker Lark (and judging by the licence plate a 1962 model)
Late 1920s/early 1930s car with what looks like a Chevrolet badge
This was lined up with the show cars and it's a 1950s Studebaker pickup, probably a 3R
1950s Ford Fairlane Victoria
1950s Cadillac
1970s AMC AMX
Another view of the 1941 Ford De Luxe Coupe
1970s Plymouth Barracuda
1960s Cadillac deVille
1930s Ford Model A

Victorian Day 2007, Riverton, New Jersey

When we visited the USA in 2007 we stayed in Riverton, a borough of Burlington County, New Jersey. On the Saturday of our visit (2nd June) Riverton held its second Victorian Day and below are some of the photographs we took on that day.









The car show was naturally what interested me most. I'll show more photographs of the cars tomorrow.


We had a really enjoyable time that day in Riverton with the whole community seeming to join in, but looking at various websites it doesn't look as if they've had a Victorian Day since then, which seems a great pity.
