Main street in South Boston, Virginia, 1939
And the !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! . That wooden facade is horrible.

Losing the big the windows is even worse than the facade.

If you look closely at the 1939 photo, it looks like those windows are at least painted over. It was likely used as a storage space. A can of white paint would go a long way on that modern facade. And that permanent awning looks pretty sketchy, too.

I’ll pick off the easy one, 36 Ford at far left.
The older wooden wheeled sedan is interesting, could be some work to ID.

I’ll get one. That’s a Buick LaCrosse in the second photo. No idea what year, though.

You can see a Chevy badge on the pickup parked in reverse, quick search reveals it’s a ‘ 38 model . I think the slightly more modern looking car below the word ‘ outlet’ is a ‘ 37-’38 Chevy too.

And I guess t he wood spoked car could be a mid-20's Buick. Similar c-pillar area, front door hinge placement and Buicks seem to have used mainly wood spoke wheels back then.
