I picked up an old Kodak Brownie 616, and there was a roll of exposed film inside. I developed the film, and there were very useable images (except where I measured wrong, hence the dark strip along the bottom). This image was the only one that gave any type of specific info regarding the subjects. The roll seems to be that of a visit to Grandma & Grandpa's house with the new baby. The car has a legible Washington State license plate, and I'm submitting a request for vehicle history to WA state in hopes of possibly finding the family, and sending them these never before seen images.

Now to the point. Can any of you car gurus tell me the year, make, and model of the car? A web search of car emblems, etc. left me empty handed.

Thanks!

Looks like one of Chrysler's models from 57 or maybe 56 (more likely 57 though) or possibly even 58.

Chrysler product was my first thought as well, but I can't match up the fins or the trunk emblem with anything online.

It most likely is a 56 Plymouth. My first car was a 1957 Plymouth. Yes, I am that old.

Going through wiki's list of Chrysler/Dodge/Plymout​h vehicles, I came upon the Dodge Kingsway which has the same fins/taillights, but different trunk emblem. It is most definitely a '56 Belvedere. Now to fill out the form, and see if I can find the family! :)
