96%. Confused mid-fifties Dodge and Plymouth on one section, so I missed two.
De Soto produced some beautiful cars from ‘55 to ‘59, it’s surprising that the marque was eliminated. Many of them were actually better looking than the more costly Chrysler of the same vintage.
Prettiest of them all was the step-down Hudson, though. Always loved those, very sleek and clean, the best of the immediate postwar designs. Roomy and fast, too. Many NASCAR drivers drove them in the early years, police did as well.
There’s an improbable hotrod I see out and about on my commute occasionally, a two-door Nash station wagon, turquiose and white with old fashioned American mags. It looks really good, surprisingly. Profile of the roofline is much like the ‘55 Chevy Nomad two door wagon. The ungainly look of the wheelwells is gone when lowered and filled with some serious wheels and rubber. Great looking car, never would have thought, lol.
A lot of these pictures showed the used cars my family and neighbors drove when I was a kid - mentally knocked off a few loose chrome strips and added back a little rust and they were easy to identify.
Agree with you on Hudsons too. Love that zeppelin-like look, one of the few cars where the four door model is prettier than the coupe.
