Carspotters' Challenge #13--Unlucky

A black cat must've crossed the transport driver's path on the way to the dealership. If any of the mirrors broke when the Mercury flipped over, it's going to be a really bad day.
What else do you see?

I'm pretty sure that's a '68 Cougar over there between the white '62 Chevy and the dark '70 Mercury Marquis.

Can't id the upside down car. There's a fantastic full size Mercury across the street, and a Cougar, (69?) and a 63 Chevy full size. Chevy van on the transporter as well as a Mustang

That's a Mercury Marquis that's on its roof, 69-70 vintage. There's another one (can't tell the color other than it's dark) in the parking lot across the street. There's also a white 69 Cougar and parked next to it is a 62 Bel Air. On the carrier there's a late-60s Chevy Van, 69 Mustang and it looks like there's a 67-68 Mustang in the front.
Love to know how/why that Merc flipped over. Hopefully that wasn't a customer-ordered car...
