    Nice photos Jim! Back when cars had style and were different, now days you can’t tell a Hyundai from a Honda.

      There have always been common design themes in cars. They change with the eras!

    Always love these auto related “pix-listicals”. Valuable for every designer and artist to see what kind of time and expense was spent just on the label in the old days!

      Yes, the labels on modern cars are so plain.

    I love the old logos, especially the scripts!!! When did cars stop having cool names!!!

      Car names are so tied to the zeitgeist!

    Every one of these is fascinating to just stare at for a minute or two. There are a lot of “E”s in Belvedere.
    Also, minor nit: the 55 is “C 300” while the 57 is “300 C”. I had never actually thought about that.

      Chrysler’s 300 line is full of weirdnesses like that!
