Bullet-riddled, rusting chassis of an early 1950s Dodge pickup.
A late '40s - early '50s era school bus, also bullet-riddled. Unable to determine the exact make and year, although it shares characteristics with models from the period such as Studebaker, International Harvester, & Dodge, most notably the 2-panel divided windshield, the size and placement of windows on the swinging doors, and the modular body styling. The fact the bus is missing the entire engine compartment and front grill makes identification that much more difficult, unlike with the truck pictured above.
The side rear emergency exit door seems to be a product of the 1950s, although I could find no matches with any make or model of school bus for the uniquely styled rear windows, nor for the rounded transom windows above each passenger seat.*
*GM did use such windows on their commercial passenger coaches in the 1950s.
