Fun (but easy) test. Got 98%, missed one. I agree with others. Back in the 50's cars looked different because they were different. Not like today's "jellybean" look.

100%, I grew up in the '50s and loved cars at an early age. Had fun with this, thanks.

Born in '57 in a rust belt so many were gone by my age of infatuation. Managed a 79% though.

Think I have done this one some time in the past before but I still only got 92%. Those Mopars and Kaiser's tripped me up.

I got 100% and I'm only 65. I would tell my dad the make of cars at night while sitting on our front porch and I was about 4 then - usually by the tail lights LOL. Can't do it with the new cars anymore just a few of the remakes.

You got 100% (48 right out of 48). The average score is 73%.
Thanks for playing!

Almost too easy, but fun! DD

96% 46 out of 48. The Henry J and the Kaiser got me although I had to make some guesses on the Mopars. Neat test. Thanks.
