IB>  i think is the old style; there were not many two
IB> cars alike. Not like nowadays "Is that a Camry, Taurus or a
IB> Cavalier?".  And if they were alike, like the ealry 60's Buick Olds
IB> Pontiac compacts, at least they had  defining features like hoods
IB> grilles or interiors even!
 Like the 1954 or so Pontiac had chrome stripes on the hood and trunk,
that the Chevy did not have.  We called them  suspenders...
IB> Not only that, but they're easier to work on,
   THAT'S what I like too !!  Good old carbs...
IB> ... The styling is a large portion of it, of course. It kind of
IB> connects you with the past (plus you get lots of attention!).
  Do you remember the 1958 plane ...  I mean Chevy ??
IB> They don't make cars as big anymore, as powerful anymore or as
IB> distinctive  anymore. What kind of car you select definately is a
IB> reflection upon your  personality!
  Welllll, like the adds of the VW Beetle said:
 When you buy a VW, it does not say how rich you are, but how
clever you are !!!  |-)
