Lorne Green was huge back then. He even put out hit records without even singing on them (remember, "Ringo"?) My mom bought the 66 Impala coupe with a the standard straight six engine, with no AC, power nothing and AM radio, and kept it for 12 years. Mechanically solid, but the body rusted almost immediately and it leaked like a sieve.

That was really fun to watch, but boy does that seem like a different time if not a different world. My father's closest purchase was a '68 Pontiac Catalina. He liked the car but had similar rust and chrome issues like tombalas mentioned above. Overall his '64 Buick Wildcat was favored.
