You got 91% (51 right out of 56). The average score is 68%.


Yep, this is one for us old farts!!

I scored all of the Cadillacs correctly, but mixed up the 59 and 60 Mercurys and screwed up on one of the Packard vs Lincoln. I was surprised to have remembered some of them. My Dad, RIP, drove DeSotos, Hudsons, and Pontiacs before falling for a VW Beetle beginning in the mid sixties. He then always had a pickup, a VW and some American iron in the driveway. Ha ha, he would have gotten all of these answers. Definitely a car guy.

So how many out of 28 did you guess. Next time I'll try to include British car fins, they did have them didn't they.

one of the Packard vs Lincoln.
The 56 Lincoln rear end looks a bit Packard.

Got 80%. I'm sure my Dad would have gotten 100%. Being a mechanic from 1962-1990. Bless his soul...

I owned a 57 Chevy BelAir with nice fins. Greatest era in U.S. auto history.

Most of my errors were between different years of the same brand/model.
