The car is a 1941 Chevrolet Special Deluxe coupe, however base on the condition of the car it appears the photo was taken post war time period, 1950s?
1941 Chevy Coupe
Many cars of the ‘40’s had similar styling, and the first couple of years after the war, the manufacturers recycled the prewar designs. Looking at pictures of cars from this era, I put this as a (circa) 1940 Olds Club Coupe. The design of the front fenders, which don’t go to the doors, and the taillights are my clues.

Guessing late ‘40s to early ‘50s
