Absolutely David......American 50's and '60's vehicles were all about style
and power. September television shows were highly anticipated - not for
the show but for the introduction of "next year's models"! Pretty girls
always highlighted the new low look or the windswept tail fins......no worry
about fuel mileage standards, quality control was just a glance, tailpipe
emissons were off the map by today's specs, and safety - nah - with all that
steel, who needs safety features!! Funny, a TR3 still looks as small
against an Escalade today as it did against my father's Buick Estate
Wagon....ahhh, those were the years:)
