Good point. The wide whites are a major anachronism. Thin whitewalls were the style in 1966.

If you want dramatic looks in a midsize, it seems that Korea is now the place to look.

Kills everything else in the ecosystem too. DDT was nasty stuff, but effective.

I'm in love with that '67 El Camino. Make mine with a 327, four-speed, disc brakes, and A/C, please.

No-one mentions the secret rebuilding projects that take place whenever the bridge gets destroyed. Those night-time teams are quick!

GM did work up some prototypes for 1941 LaSalles before they pulled the plug on the marque.

At least the X-type looked better than the S-type. I know it's asking for trouble, but I would not mind an X-type wagon - the best-looking of them all.

The seller is wrong. There was never a Cadillac LaSalle - LaSalle was always a separate make, though it was built by Cadillac. This car is a 1940, which was the last year for the make. It's also the Model 50, cheaper of the two available lines in that it has the older sedan body. The premium Model 52 LaSalle had a sleeker new body.

The hot ticket is the Model 52 convertible sedan - worth some pretty serious money nowadays.

LaSalle was created in the late '20s to fill a gap between Buick and Cadillac, but that gap narrowed to nearly nothing by 1940 and GM decided keeping the LaSalle wasn't worth the bother. The 1975 Cadillac Seville was going to be called LaSalle, but Cadillac changed their mind at the last minute when it was pointed out that the LaSalle name had a loser image since it was killed by GM.

Plus Audi had to soften and dampen the suspension because there were too many complaints about the early cars spinning too easily. There goes the sharpness of handling.

And a '59 Imperial is behind the Dodge.
