The picture shows the first generation USS Enterprise, NCC-1701, without a letter suffix. That makes it the first "Constitution class" ship. The original Star Trek series was made in 1966–1969, which explains why most of the cars in the picture are from the early 1960s. No wormhole, nor Photoshop, was needed to fix an anachronism.
The "Galaxy Class" Enterprise came later, NCC-1701-D. That was filmed in 1987–1994.Ivan Seeking said:

Yes, the 1964 Ford Galaxie.
In front of the Galaxie is a 1957 Pontiac Star Chief.
On the other side of the street, you have a Plymouth 1959, and another Ford Galaxie 1964.
In the parking lot, there is a Dodge 1956, a Cadillac 54-55, a Desoto 57-58, and a Chevrolet 1964.
And there's a 1964 Pontiac Station Wagon on the truck.
I can't identify the car's rear end on the other side of the street. I was thinking Chevrolet Corvair, but it seems they did not come with that two-tone configuration, except for the truck.
I used to live for that stuff. What an era for car design.
