77%. Thanks for posting the quiz. I can remember many a summer night in the late 1950's and early '60's sitting with my parents and sister on the front porch swing and trying to identify the cars going by on the highway in front of our house. Plus it helped that my dad had a 1956 Dodge Coronet, an uncle had a 1950 Chevy, another uncle had a I think 1958 Chevy, and another uncle had a mid to late '50's Pontiac. I can still picture all those cars in my mind.

That was enjoyable. Considering I am by no means an expert on 50's cars, I was surprised to get 83%. Really blew the hood ornaments. Looking at some of the above scores I must say a bunch of you guys know your stuff.

98%, mistook the 56 Chrysler for a Desoto, which was dump because there was already a Desoto in the grouping. Would not want to do that quiz on todays cars, would probablr get 2%. I swear they are all coming from the same plant!

Hey, c'mon now, I'm not an old fart yet. Although recently I have been fighting the urge to yell &quot;Get off my lawn!&quot; at every young person I see. And I increasingly find myself using the phrase &quot;young person&quot; in casual conversation.
