Car No 13 which is a Cadillac Series 62 and Tuner No 9: Chuck Berry. Song is: Dear Dad: "Try to find a Cadillac,
A Sixty-two or three."

Ray B. · « **Reply #28 on:** November 23, 2009, 11:55:00 AM »

You're not too lucky with Cadillacs...Your first ID as a 1948 model, (and a fastback!) kept me wondering. Here you have a better ID, but still the wrong song.
But you did recognize Chuck Berry, and it wasn't obvious on this picture. So I lock this for you 48 hours.

It can't be Dear Dad, which is a 1965 song, because when he refers to a 62 or 63 he can only mean the year. The Series 63 ended in 1942 with a very low production number, all sedans, and I doubt that a 1965 boy would ask his father for a 23 years old sedan.
What we have here is a Coupe.

Tuner 12 Rev. Horton Heat - Five Oh Ford of #5.

Ray B. · « **Reply #30 on:** November 23, 2009, 03:58:04 PM »

Right pairing, but wrong song. If you check the lyrics you should find the right song easily. I'm quite precise about the models when the song is too.

Right. I even think he was the first. But he's not paired with that song here.

Galaxy 500

That's it (usually incorrectly quoted with a Y). The song even says that it's a '73.

Ultra · « **Reply #34 on:** November 23, 2009, 04:49:10 PM »

Five -Oh Ford is a different Horton Heat tune. I thought of that tune first because there were Fords like the one you posted in Hawaii Five O.

Are tuners #7 Soul musicians from the sixties?

Ray B. · « **Reply #36 on:** November 24, 2009, 10:10:15 AM »

Nope. Neither soul neither the sixties.

Allemano · « **Reply #37 on:** November 24, 2009, 10:15:44 AM »

Rock 'n' Roll?

Ray B. · « **Reply #38 on:** November 24, 2009, 11:07:40 AM »

Rock 'n' Roll or Rythm 'n' Blues is more correct. But this song predates rock.

Allemano · « **Reply #39 on:** November 24, 2009, 01:14:18 PM »

Was this band famous for one lone hit?

Allemano · « **Reply #40 on:** November 24, 2009, 01:15:50 PM »

...and: was there another band with the same name later doing completely different kind of music?

I don't think so. Or a hit that wasn't famous enough for me to know it.
About your second question. I really don't think so too.
About my last answer: although related to rock and roll, their music wasn't really rock and roll.

Allemano · « **Reply #42 on:** November 24, 2009, 05:21:35 PM »

So, they are not The Chords?.
I guessed because tuners#7 obviousely are six band members and two of them are appearantly brothers if not identical twins..

Ray B. · « **Reply #43 on:** November 24, 2009, 05:44:16 PM »

They're not the Chords... but there something else that fits them in your answer.

Allemano · « **Reply #44 on:** November 24, 2009, 06:13:07 PM »

Well, I have another try: would band/tuners #7 "The Treniers" match car #6 a Cadillac Convertible from 1941?

Allemano · « **Reply #45 on:** November 24, 2009, 06:42:03 PM »

Tuners #4 are comedian Arthur Collins and tenor Byron G. Harlan who match car#2 the 1903 Curved Dashed Olds.
They had a hit with 'In My Merry Oldsmobile' as well

Ray B. · « **Reply #46 on:** November 25, 2009, 03:06:10 AM »

Yes to both your guesses. But for the first you need to find the song if youn want to score.

I'll be away until friday afternoon, by the way.

So the remaining pair should be Chuck Berry (No9) and car nO13, a Cadillac Series 61 Coupe De Ville from 1949

In the song, Maybelline he sang: "I saw Maybelline in a Coupe de Ville/Cadillac rollin' down the open road"

They made a song titled "Cadillac Convertible", that's why I didn't mention it explicitly again.. It's the 11th track on their "Hey Sister Lucy" Album

All right. Now you have the right tuner, the right song ...but still not quite the right car.
Close enough. Given you great knowledge of other cars, this won't be held against you and you have the point.

The car is a 1953 Cadillac Series 62 Coupe De Ville, as in Maybellene. 1953 by the bumper guards, about the biggest "dagmars" even to adorn a Cadillac. Series 62 because there was no series 61 in 1953, and because, anyway, from 1949 on, the Coupe De Ville was only available in the series 62.

Allemano: you're right of course. You're so good at that game, I wonder why you don't try your luck at Otto's "Yep, another Car Tunes Puzzle"?
