1957 Chevrolet Bel Air

The 1957 Chevrolet is a car that was introduced by Chevrolet in September 1956 for the 1957 model year. It was available in three series models: the upscale Bel Air, the mid-range Two-Ten, and the One-Fifty. A two-door station wagon, the Nomad, was produced as a Bel Air model. An upscale trim option called the Delray was available for Two-Ten 2-door sedans. It is a popular and sought after classic car. These vehicles are often restored to their original condition and sometimes modified. The car's image has been frequently used in toys, graphics, music, movies, and television. The '57 Chevy, as it is often known, is an auto icon.

The 1965 Mustangs - A Highly Anticipated Sequel

As is typical with car release dates, the 65 Mustangs were introduced in September of the previous year. What was not so typical was the fact that Ford had just released a 1965 Mustang version six months prior, in April of the same year. Thus, the earlier pace car version is still known as the 64 1/2, whereas the 1965 Ford Mustang version is known as the late model '65 Mustang. It can get a bit confusing, but hopefully we've clarified it for you.

1957 Ford Thunderbird Classic Cars 

Lifting the Thunderbird’s hood reveals its D-Code 312ci V8 that produces 245hp. That power finds its way to the rear wheels via an automatic transmission, with this combination allowing the Ford to cover the ¼ mile in 16.4 seconds. For buyers seeking a turnkey classic, this car might hit the spot. The seller indicates that it runs and drives well, and the transmission shifted smoothly. 

This is a very special car in my life in that one of them was owned by the older brother of one of my best friends in high school. It was the envy of several of the students at my high school. 

The Ford Fairlane 500 Skyliner is a two-door full-size retractable hardtop convertible, manufactured and marketed by Ford Motor Company for model years 1957–1959. For the model year 1959, the name changed to Ford Fairlane 500 Galaxie Skyliner shortly after production began (also illustrated as such in the brochure but described only as "Galaxy" in the related text.). The retractable roof mechanism, marketed as the "Hide-Away Hardtop", [2] was unique to Ford-branded products, and was not offered on Continental, Lincoln, Mercury, or Edsel branded vehicles. A total of 48,394 were manufactured.

The Volkswagen Beetle—officially the Volkswagen Type 1, informally in German der Käfer (meaning "beetle"), in parts of the English-speaking world the Bug,[7] and known by many other nicknames in other languages—is a two-door, rear-engine economy car, intended for five occupants (later, Beetles were restricted to four people in some countries),

that was manufactured and marketed by German automaker Volkswagen (VW) from 1938 until 2003.

I'm sure there are many here that owned a VW Type 1 during your younger years. It was a very popular vehicle among US military personnel when I was stationed in Germany in 1969. It was very easy to maintain. There were old junkers available in the back lots of most Kasernes to rob parts from.

There were many " Bugs " on campus when I was in college during the mid 1960s. 

How about you? Was there a beetle in your life?

For the 1966 model year, the first for the Bronco, the Blue Oval produced 23,776 units at the Michigan Assembly Plant.

It seemed that during the 1960s, the late Lee Iacocca had the golden touch. After the monumental success of the Mustang, he gave product approval for the first Ford Bronco, and the model repaid his faith by becoming an initial sales success.

Who had a fun ride like this?

Plymouth Fury 4-Door Hardtop 318 V8 230hp

The 1964 Plymouth models were great sellers for the Chrysler Corporation, creating huge profits and moving the nameplate from fifth to fourth place overall among US auto brands.

I always thought that the 1964 Plymouth models were great looking designs and very popular among auto racing fans. Their high performance also led to great success on the track.

We purchased one like the one in the photos from my folks in the Spring of 1967 when I graduated from college.
