I got them all. I remember every one of them when they were new. That helped.

Took it yesterday morning.

100%... 48 of 48 here.

Shoot, I actually owned 2 of those cars, they were pretty old when I bought them, though, they were less than $300 each and in great shape.

65% for me and the average is 73%

Not too bad for being born in the 70's.

It was a Willys Aero... there were trim/engine packages; Wing, Lark, Eagle...



The Henry J was also built as an 'Allstate'... they were sold at Sears stores with different taillights and emblems.

They were an 'upscale' Henry J... even had a trunk lid. My Dad said they physically had them parked in the store.

Big failure...only sold a few thousand in 2 years.

There was also an 'Allstate' scooter... rebadged Vespa.

1960s GM - 89%

1960s non-GM - 71%

Auto History 50s and 60s 6 out of 17 -- wah waaahhhh

Engine ID - 10 out of 17

Engine ID2 - 9 out of 19

My only excuse is that almost all of these were before my time. I was born in '70. I have owned a '65 Impala, '69 Riviera and '70 Skylark.
