The first picture is very interesting. You will notice there is very little debris on the cars so was this from some flood with a high rock content. Lots of great cars

In the center picture of the restaurant, do you see the back of a Ford roadster way over on the right? Why does it appear to have much later, maybe '35 sixteen inch Ford wire wheels on it? I can't see any other car in this photo that's built later than 1930, maybe 1931. The sedan at the furthest right looks like the front of a '30 or '31 Buick.

There are 4 Model A's in the centre pic & as massAman says, no later looking cars than 1931, but it could be 1932.
That roadster may have been fitted with accessory wheels [Firestone?]for Balloon Tyres, they do not appear to be later Ford wires.
First photo looks to be the result of a flood?
