Victory Girls: 1942
Taken in Los Angeles, Calif., 1942. During World War 2 there was a man shortage on the home front so these ladies replaced them for the duration. View full size.
Willys
I would place the car as a 1941 Willys. They were small cars, with a flathead 4 cylinder motor but later became very popular later as hot rod bodies in the 50's and 60's.Especially the coupes and 2 doors.
Three gallons
I would bet there's an "A" sticker on that car's windshield. This meant you got three gallons for the entire WEEK. You also had to drive at "Victory Speed"--35 MPH, no more.
