Ah, yes, the 1970s: When the philosophy of American car-building changed from its historical “Run for 3 years, then fall apart so they have to buy a new one – but look good doing it” to “Why are we spending money making them look good?”
Bought a 1982 Plymouth Reliant (K car) new. Biggest POS I ever owned. I called it Muttley. Got a bumper sticker for it: “0 to 60 in 15 minutes”. People still tailgated me. Go figure.

This is good, but these girls are a little too close to a stranger in an overcoat.
