Re: [Chrysler300] 50's Car Test

[John Kuegel <jwkco@xxxxxxxxx>]

Gil and everyone,

-I wrote to the American Torque website and notified them of the Savoy photo really being that of a Belvedere (I mean, if you're going to have a trivia quiz...maybe the details should be correct!!), and the response was that it was truely a Savoy, but a Canadian issue...my response to them on that was: no fair!!...trick question...when all the cars are supposedly American and the website even is called "American....." I assumed that the all the cars were American issue cars...On other continents, American export cars from the 1950's were sold as new current models in the 1960's...imagine if they threw a few of them in the quiz???  ......all in good fun!!

Don and All:
I think the Bel Air in 1952 was Chevy's name for their hardtop.  (Like 
Victoria for Ford and Newport for Chrysler.)  Yes, the "Savoy" was a 
Belevedere---correct spelling Don???  Got it out of my old Motor  Trend.  Yes, this 
old guy got them all right too.  Don't want to try  my hand at any other 
decade, though.  If they had both the '52 and '53  Mercs, I might have been in 
deep do-do.  Well, enough of this illegal list  server talk!

I got  all of them also.  There were a few models that were identified with 
the  wrong series - such as the Savoy vs. Belvidere.  1953 wasn't one of 
the  choices given for that Mercury quiz, thus making it much easier.

I  missed one 
50's Car Test 

All right you young &  older whipper-snappers, let’s see how you do. Be 
honest with yourself….no  cheating. See how you do. 

The average score is 73% 

This will really rattle the cobwebs in the 'ol brain.
