Hey Where do they put gas NO LID?

Not sure if you are really asking, or if you are just being sarcastic. So I'll give you a straight answer:

Look behind the license plate.

Nice video of American ‘50s culture! Thanks.

If GM made a new retro version of that car, they would kill it in the marketplace. Assuming it was done right, of course. We are talking about GM, after all. I still cringe when I think about my friend’s parents who traded a mint ‘69 Caprice Coupe for a brand new 1980 Citation. Whoops! Just goes to show how far they fell in just 11 years.

My ‘66 was light metallic silver with a black rag top and red vinyl interior.

Wonderful memories for me. The first new car my father ever bought was a 1956 Chevy Bel Air. I was 16 at the time and got to drive it a lot. I tried to talk him into buying a hardtop model, but he went for the sedan.

Ouch! I could have done without seeing that!

1955-1965, the apogee of America and civilization as a whole

Those two tone deals were fugly even back when they were the think. Dad had a 56 Ford something in white and black. Called it “Scotty”.

My Nomad was very clean and cherried out like that one too.

Those two tone deals were fugly even back when they were the thing.

I could understand some not liking the black and greenish yellow two-tone color scheme at the top. But I'd have trouble believing anyone here would not like the one in my post 53.

Bingo! You got it. In the Left rear tail light.

[Windflier]

Now that is much more to my liking! Thanks.

First car I can remember in my family was a 1956 Chevy Bel-Air wagon. The exterior was the typical Chevy blue and white color scheme with blue vinyl interior.
