The Blue whale and the Tulsa Oil Man are icons from Oklahoma. I have no idea where the wall in the background is, but Oklahoma is a good guess.

Oo, this would be a good “Name that Car!”

The one they’re loading doesn’t appear to be a 550 Spyder, so what could it be?

Flying the race cars to a faraway place? Mexico, Carrera Panamericana, mid-50’s? Could that be Ferry Porsche and Mrs P on the right? Long shot.
