I dont really take these kind of tests, 3/4 of them have errors in them or the spelling is wrong. Belair is typically spelled BelAire on these kind of tests even though theres no e in the name.

81/100 Could not come up with a model for one Cadillac (8), one Plymouth (27), a Ford (30), and a couple others were total blanks...and they mistakenly identified the Metropolitan as an AMC car and not a Nash. #38 sure looked like a Ford LTD or a Chrysler Imperial. Other than that, I guess I did OK.

8: Cad Coupe de Ville.

27: Plymouth GTX

30: Ford Thuderbird, the vacuum cleaner years.

38: Chevrolet Caprice. (Earier version)

Yea, the Metropolitan was a Nash, but I guess AMC was formed far earlier than I recall, having been only 1 year old a the time, perhaps I can be excused:

Nash Motors - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

(note to anyone who wants to point out, once again, the unreliability of Wiki: SIUYA, this is just for grins, the reader can research further but I've spent all the time I care to and Wiki is quicky)
