It's not nearly as big as the LTD Country Squire that the Vacation movie wagon used.

Zephyr didn't replace the Grand Marquis. It replaced the Comet.

I always thought Kammbacks were cool too. The prototype Firebirds were the pinnacle of cool Kammbacks. I also had a fondness for the Geo Storm Kammbacks when they were new.

The supercharged powertrain is nice but I had a Buick Regal for a year and there's nothing worse than sitting in that car with the same shitty plastics and quality of a lowly Cavalier.

Yes the Monza, Skyhawk, Starfire and Sunbird were all on the Vega plaform with a new body design. It was supposed to replace the Vega and Astre but the fuel crisis enabled the demand for lots of fuel efficient cars. Similar thing happened to the Ford Maverick which was supposed to be replaced with the Ford Granada…

No one showed the first Canadian 1973 Astres. Vega with a split grille and unique chrome headlamp bezels.

Because it had to be uncool for it to become cool later like it is now.

They were functional for cross-flow interior ventilation extraction. Many GM cars in 1971 had these rear vents in combination with a blower fan that never turned off which was a feature that was dropped after that model year. Some models got rid of the vents reverting to ones that were installed in the door jambs. 

The 1971 Mustang was not a hatchback. It was a fastback. The first hatchback available was the 1974 Mustang II .

Style it like a 1950s Roadmaster with vibrant hued two toned paint divided by a sweepspear and it will at least look like a Buick and not just some generic product that has been relabeled within the round emblem mount on the grille.

The grille bagels look like a leftover idea from 2005-2014 Mustang GT blinding foglights for the newest bodystyle.

Ironic that a maverick was unbranded cattle but a Ford Maverick was branded.... As a Ford.

The Monarch was not named after a type of butterfly but rather royalty. The Monarch name originated as a division of Ford Motor Company of Canada with Mercury models rebadged and regrilled to sell at Ford dealers where they needed the sales volume for areas that did not have Mercury dealerships.

Too bad we never got a two-door Olds Bravada 🤣😂🤣😂

Nice clean lines and proportions. 

Stacked rectangular headlamps were a novel version of the 1960s stacked round headlamps. It was for the 1975 model year that rectangular sealed beam were DOT approved so the race was on to convert many vehicles to this new look. GM lead causing Ford and Chrysler to play catch up. 1977 ½ brought single rectangular…

That Mustang II Ghia is the same configuration Kelly Garret drove in Charlie's Angels. And kept repeatedly getting blown up!

It doesn’t work that way on model years the lights carry over which always carry the first model year stamped on the lens only. Mustangs 65-66 used the same lamps, 67-68 common, 69-70 were different, 71-73 common, 74-78 common, 79-82 common, 83-86 common, 87-93 common, 94-95 common, 96-04 common, 05-09 common, 10-12…

The biggest telltale inside was the round “flower pot” horn pad of the 1967 vs the horizontal horn pad of the 1968.

Except the 1966 Falcon was re-engineered and common with the Fairlane and even shared doors, some glass and wagon body shells. The 1966 Ranchero used Falcon front end sheetmetal then the next year switched to Fairlane sheetmetal.
