The DeLorean made the list.

(Sung to tune of Janis Joplin's Mercedes Benz:)

Oh Lord, won't you buy me a De-Lor-e-an
It's cocaine connected, the envy of my friends
I'll use it for laundry, and other odds and ends
Oh Lord, won't you buy me a De-Lor-e-an.

The Slant 6 in your old Dart is likely still running in something, somewhere. That was a good motor.

Likely why they stopped making it....it lasted too well.

The Slant 6 was bulletproof. Had an old Duster with one. Loved that car.

Probably killed off by smog laws.
I had a Ford F-150 with the 300 cubic inch in-line 6 that was as tough as a tractor.

Yeah, one of the first cars I drove was a 77 Dodge Aspen Wagon.

Car was a Piece of Junk; it literally rusted out and fell apart. But, the Slant6 in it ran like a top. Still might be running, for all I know.

When we talk about some of the greatest cars in the movies we have to include the 1967 Mustang Shelby GT500 affectionately known as “Eleanor.”
