I’m going to say ‘77, because at my college summer job, I washed / detailed / parked / lined up / jump-started these beasts every day. We had at least a dozen of these, plus the Mark V (?) 2-doors, at any given time. You had your Givenchy Edition, your Bill Blass edition....

The old Chevy is the iconic 1957.

The green thing I’m gonna guess is a Lada, a soviet Fiat, and appears to be rear engined.

Early 60s Pontiac Catalina. My cousin has a 59, and looks better than the 61+ models.

The bubbletop era!

Now where do you think Ferrari got the idea for their semi-protruding supercar taillights? Hmm?

The 1960 Pontiac.

Did anyone see this Hagerty piece on this sharp 1960 Pontiac, with the extremely cool wheels?

I loved this one as a little kid. My friend and I would go study the shapes on the neighbors cars and they had this Pontiac. The curved taillight looks like a LEGO piece! 1962.

Then after '63 they got pretty boring, except for the Grand Prix with the lights behind chrome slots.
