I'm going to go find Tedd and stay lost in the fifties with him.

You got 92% (44 right out of 48). The average score is 73%.

I swapped the 52 / 54 Mecury or I would have had a perfect score.

The Mopars and the hood ornaments are tricky. I am on old guy so I got 100%. The 52-54 Mercurys are pretty tricky. I can tell the 54 but can't tell a 52 from a 53.

Hey Richard, one of the few good things positive about being old. I owned several of these cars, 51&54 Merc, 51,55&57 Chevy, 58 Pontiac, are the ones I remember seeing in the quiz. I took my test for my driver license in a 59 Edsel so I couldn't forget it, that was the only time I ever drove the Edsel and only for the time it took to take the test, no practice, cold turkey, and I had to parallel park it!

I'm not young any more(about to turn 40 ) but been going to car shows and swap meets since I could walk around so most of them are etched in my brain.

Still lost in the fifties... Not as good as I thought... missed three, one screw up where I marked the same type car on two boxes and a couple of hood ornaments. That was fun!...Still lost in the fifties, hope to see you there soon....Tedd

83% (40/48).

I got EVERY '56 MoPar wrong .

I also can't tell a Henry J from a ****** Aero Wing, or a '52 from a '54 Mercury (thought the bullets were earlier on the Mercs).

Looks like it's back to school for me.

Aced this one. The only ones I hesitated a bit on was the Mercs.
Now, just to clarify - I wasn't born yet when any of those cars were new

Way to easy! Rec'd a 100% score.

Query: How does one get 48 out of 48 when there are only 12 questions?
