A few trys, at random, documented or not, based on these juicy little clues:
2: An Alfa?
7: You may mean Crosley Hotshot, I've seen some with 2 pieces windshield, but aren't the headlights a little misplaced?
12: Pontiac GTO The Judge?
19: It's not a Muntz, yet.
21: As American as Ford A?

2: An Alfa? Of a sort...
7: You may mean Crosley Hotshot, I've seen some with 2 pieces windshield, but aren't the headlights a little misplaced? Indeed...
12: Pontiac GTO The Judge? Yes!
19: It's not a Muntz, yet. Right - it's not...
21: As American as Ford A? More American than that...

Is #1 a Chrysler New Yorker?

#17 has been so solved by not so many, for so long! - so there.

Otto Puzzell

#1 is not a Chrysler.

#17 - my apologies - no slight intended.

Hooray!  Thank you very much.

No. 10 is a 1923 Dagmar.

Ray B.

No kiddin'? This one is a 1926 Dagmar (although her dagmars only surfaced a few years later). A drastic change of appearence.

It is a Dagmar.

Coming soon is a whole puzzle devoted to Dagmars, by the way.

I think No. 15 is a Chevrolet Corvair Monza Spyder.

1963, as a matter of fact.

#21, more american than apple pie and a Ford A, must then be a Chevrolet, like this 1927 Capitol.

# 1: 1967 Ford full-size?
And a second guess in the same post, so as not to waist space: if not, Pontiac Tempest/GTO 1966 ?
If #2 is an Alfa Romeo, what about a Giulietta ca.1961? So, brother Alfa, where art thou?
Here in #8, a 1943 6c 2500, etc...

I took a better look: it IS a Crosley Hotshot. Everything fits, the hood opening, the little vent on the side, the door hinges. The only  things that have been changed are this 2 pieces windshield, the headlights moved downward and the door that has been recut lower. But it's the owner's problem after all, not mine.

Chevy, yes. Capitol, no.Add one more to the year, as well.

I thought that Capitol was quite American. I am not sure of the Chevrolet line of the twenties, but maybe a 1928 NATIONAL is even more American, a Confederate being only half-american.

If #2 is an Alfa Romeo, what about a Giulietta ca.1961? So, brother Alfa, where art thou? Close ;)
Here in #8, a 1943 6c 2500, etc... Yes!  :)

Dammit! I went through the whole American Car Spotter for this one and I tought it could only be one of these. Worse, I found your picture, large size, but without the caption (the site seems down).

Actually, the second guess it not too far wrong. This a sister car of the Tempest, from another GM division. While the rear fender shape would seem to match up with a Tempest taillight, it doesn't match the correct car's light shape at all.

The Buick Special/Skylark doesn't seem right. I'm going with an Olds F-85/Cutlass.
