And no one wears hats, these days. Doesn't his head size seem a bit out of proportion, to the car?

 

obviously prior to photoshop.

 

Should have been in a Chrysler Imperial. Better proportions.

 

at least they didn't bring it back as a compact... (poor Dart guys)

 

I think 1959 was the wildest year of all the 50s for excessive size and style in American autos -- haha and in choice of monikers! :

 

Back seats aren't big enough for a Chrysler Climax anymore.

 

Try a VW.

 

Dave, you're right. Now they mostly just number them.

Jim, I would amend to "58/59, to better include GM. 58 Chevy was kind of over-the-top in its way. Pontiac and Buick had some pretty wild offerings in 58 as well.
