    Before that from 1936 to 1958, the Century was a model set between the Special, Super and top of line Roadmaster. It was known as the "banker's hot rod". The former moniker then the mid-size/intermediate weared was the Special/Skylark. (Ironically Skylark was dusted off for 1975 and replaced the Apollo name)

    My imagination was going crazy and I couldn't resist to do a short comic in an hurry replicating more or less the chase scene from McQ featuring some cartoon characters at [fav.me] I'm not a big pro, I'm ashamed of myself... ^^;

    Too bad then they didn't own Austin (from the Austin-Morris/BMC/British Leyland/Austin-Rover), the first BMW car was a Austin Seven built under licence. Just imagine coming into full circle...

    And I couldn't resist to repost that Clone High video who seem to fit that Civic ;-)

    I guess the beancounters had invaded Honda.

    This is what the mommy bloggers should do instead, take a Charger ;-)

    Long before Darth Vader to promote cars, the Road Runner and Will E. Coyote did the same thing ;-)

    And to think of it, there's the Ferma nuclear reactor who was midway between Detroit and Toledo where a partial fuel meltdown happened. [en.wikipedia.org]

    Quote of the day! :-)

    +1 about the LTD LX, the "Mustang sedan". Too bad then Ford didn't made a bigger alternative of this one.

    For the single piston disc brakes, I wonder if it might be a late '69 model tested who might got some features of the early batch of the 1970 model year?

    Unless Chevy toy with other codenames like Z11 who was a special COPO for the 1963 Impala with a 427 derived from the 409 engine or the Z16 who was a RPO of the Chevelle in 1965 with the debuts of the 396 big block.

    Nice picture, it's a bit sad then Chrysler didn't go ahead with their hardtops until 1950, imagine a 1946 Plymouth hardtop. They did some prototypes in 1946, if they had decided to step ahead, GM would had probably been caught pants down. Picture from [auto.howstuffworks.com]
