The colors and skin tones are good. I tried and failed to identify the
green vehicle shown in the second one. That elongated headlight bucket
is illusive.

I shot a lot of ASA 10 Kodachrome in the early 1950s. You get used to
it. Here's one from 1953.

I can go back quite a ways farther in time. Here's my mom and dad to
be, showing us the great problem with ASA 10 (or 8?), motion blur of
casual shots, even in bright sun.

OTOH, it blurred out his acne, so visible in some B&W shots. He's
seldom caught smiling, as his two front teeth were crooked, slightly
overlapping, back then.
It worked better in a posed shot, as of my mother with her parents.

I'd date the photos from about '38 - '40. I know they courted at the
SF World's Fair of '39-40, but don't know if it was both years. They
married in June, '42, after mom had finished nursing school at UCSF
and dad OCS.
