GM realizes the E-car was just, plain boojit !

We don't want 'em and are STILL waiting for brand new '56 an' 57 Chevy's in baby blue n' white.

WHAT is wrong with the auto industry . . . we loved our pre '70's cars and we can no longer afford to restore 'em (IF we can FIND one . . ).

... but a brand new from original forms an' stamps with modern technology an' components, all hidden from sight ?

Would YOU buy a brand new '57 T'Bird?

Sigh... I owned a pristine '57 Chevy 2-dr coupe, low mileage, 327ci engine and Muncie 4-spd trans, hydraulic lift shocks to raise the rear, offset spindles in front, headers out the fenders with pipes under the side sills of the doors, etc. Wish I never sold it in the mid-70's, but I needed the money for dental work. Best of several cars I owned back then, including '56, '58 and '63 Chevy's. They don't make them like that anymore.
