  1. Two hands on the steering wheel is a thing of the past! Check out Pontiac’s new Easy-Cruise hydromatic transmission and Blue Dress Power Steering!

    Just lean back and enjoy the intern, errr, ride!

  2. Today being the 46th anniversary of Teddy’s driving his Oldsmobile into Chappaquiddick.

    Tomorrow is the 46th anniversary of Teddy reporting it to the police.

    Fewer people died in Abu Ghraib prison than died in Teddy’s Olsdmobile.

    August 25th will the the sixth anniversary of Teddy’s sobriety.

  3. I’m pretty sure that “Spread your legs” meant the same thing in ’55 as it does now. I’m surprised that ad ever ran anywhere, unless it was in Playboy.

  4. When we met in the early 60’s, DH had a white ’62 Ford Sunliner convertible w red interior and later a white Catalina. Very roomy front bench seats. Not sure how roomy the back seats were though. Never was in the back seats.

  5. Now, my buddy’s Nash, THAT was a date car. It also had a compartment between the back seat and the trunk which we geniuses lined with Styrofoam and sold cold beer at the venue of the day… or night.

  6. I can’t imagine anybody’s Nash to be a date car. They were especially in the late 40’s and early 50’s some of the fugliest cars ever built. We called 49 Nashes bathtub bombers because they looked like an upside down bathtub on wheels. Even early 50’s Hudson Hornets were better looking than Nashes. And my Dad’s maroon 53 Packard Clipper was a better car as well, still big & ugly but not Nash ugly.

  7. Mashes and Ramblers were known as date cars only because the front seats would lay down. Very handy. The hard part was trying to get a girl to be seen riding in one.

  8. Had a 59 Bonneville and always thought that red and white upholstery was ugly. Got more chicks with my 65 Impala without even trying. But if the two hit head on, that Pontiac would come out on top. Built like a tank.

  9. Lois Lane on the old Superman show with George Reeves drove an early 50’s Nash Rambler convertible. Truly ugly car. Maybe Nash was a sponsor, who knows. Or Superman/Clark Kent thought she was a hot chick for driving such a cool car. Personally I prefer 48-49 Studebaker Commanders, an ugly but cute car with a nose that looked if you put a propeller on that it could fly.

  10. That should be a 48-49 Studebaker Champion not Commander. My brother in Seattle owns a 1939 Studebaker Commander which is in very nice condition. There is also a very nice 1931 Studebaker that I see occasionally on Friday mornings down in Kennewick parked at the McDonalds on Hwy. 395. I think an old guy drives it when he meets his buddies for coffee on Fridays. It still has the original 1931 Wash. license plates.

  11. My granddad had a Studebaker, painted lime green. Wish I had it now. My car of choice was my black 69 Grand Prix with white interior, 400 engine, speedometer registering 160. Nice car. Only problem, every time it rained, the trunk filled up with water.
