From an old family film. The model should be obvious. Not too sure about the model year.
Guess the car and year.

1957 Buick is my best guess. Would be easier to tell from front as
'57 had single headlights while '58 had double.

they are actually from film. My Dad was an early techie. He loved electronics and was an early adopter of stuff. I bought a film digitizer from Amazon transfer the stuff. I also bought a photo digitizer (photo scanner) for the photographs. Of which I have thousands. It will take a while. lolYou are lucky those pictures survived. Priceless really.

I was 99% sure it was a 58, my uncle Joe had one. First time I ever went 100MPH. I confirmed with google, 57's has similar chrome taillights, but with a round light.

From a lot of the pictures of the 57's they seemed to have a three piece rear glass.
Plus different tail lights.

My late uncle worked for Triumph.
The first pic is my older brother in the car.
The second pic is me. Guess what cars are in the background.

Looks like about a 1962 Ensign ? But what was that doing in what I assume to be Ontario?

Yup. My Uncle was the president of Triumph Canada in the mid 50's. They sold several British cars including the Vanguard if I recall correctly.
