Trying to date this photograph from the cars shown (Solved ~ Mid-1970's)

Thinking 1960's sometime, but perhaps somebody can see enough detail and know their cars well enough to pinpoint it more accurately. Thanks!

That first car looks like a 1971 Matador .

Not too early I think. Early to mid seventies. IMO

For some reason the truck and van in the back right look like newer vehicles than 60's or 70's. That's probably just my bad eyes. I would guess 70's to 80's. Good luck.

Thanks guys .. I believe you are correct. Somebody emailed me and pointed out that there is a Chevy Pick-up on the right side, with a body style that didn't come out until 1974.

Thanks again!

Another clue is the partial vinyl roof on the first car. Very popular in 70's. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vinyl_roof

I dont know who invented those lol but rust always developed underneath.

The 2nd car looks like a 1970 Volkswagen Fastback. Breezie

I thought the first car was a mid seventies Mustang II?
