It's hard to tell with them being unpainted clear bodies but I assume that the shorter one is the 1961 Cooper T-54 "Kimberly Special" and the longer one is a 1967 Brawner Hawk Mark II Ford "Dean Van Lines Special".

 

With this information you should be able to find tons of pictures with Google image search.

Brawner Hawk by Clint Brawner back in 67, possibly could be AJ's  Coyote Ford,

The older car is the "Wynn's Special" one of a pair of cars built by A.J. Watson. It is a Lancer body.

See the two cars here: https://www.oldracin....com/watson/64/

The second car is a 1964 Brabham-Offy BT12 that was modified in 1965 with a four-cam Ford after being crashed twice, it is also a Lancer body.

Clint Brawner rebuilt the car and called it a "Hawk", and also built a couple more of them for Andretti to drive. Lancer made both.

Miguel, I hope that this will help you enough?

By the way, the destroyed Brabham BT12 in its 1965 version was all red. Pictures of it are very rare, I could not find one yet.
