We’re traveling back to Sao Paolo, Brazil, during the 1960s — thanks to Hemmings for the picture below. What car(s) can you identify in this traffic jam? What one(s) would you most like to have in your garage?

i got my beetle and VW fix for today. i will take all the VW’s, someone else can have all the rest.
I’d love to take a ride in one of the 4-door DKW Taxis.
I guess the coupé in the left lane coming out of the underpass is a Puma and I would take that. But the Karmann Ghia is okay too.
See that car with two hood stripes near the center? That seems to be a Chevrolet Opala SS, which would place this photograph in 1971 at the earliest.
Is that a black early 70’s Vauxhall Victor behind the Karmann Ghia in the foreground?
It’s not impossible, but it is far more likely to be another Chevrolet Opala (which is a somewhat modified Opel Rekord; the modifications include a completely different front end, yes, so to a European it would be very difficult to recognize).
