That lower photo shows a late 60s Ford.
That photo is of the ‘Crazy Joe’ Gallo killing in 1972. He was shot and killed while dining at Umberto’s on Mulberry Street in Manhattan’s Little Italy.
I have to admit I’m impressed with the ability to recognize a car’s identity based on a portion of the headlight. That to me is the equivalent of playing “Name That Tune” and being able to name the tune in one note.

Below is a wider view of the scene, showing more of the car...
It appears to be either a 1969 or 1970 Ford Custom. Neither '68 or '71 matched.

I noticed the Pepsi logo on the sign was of a late 60’s or 70’s vintage.
Probably because I used to collect and deal in soda pop memorabilia and signage. You needed to know when the companies changed their primary logos to know the sign’s vintage.
Now they make ‘collector’ signs with vintage logos on them since there is such demand for vintage advertising.
