Sixties muscle cars were impacted by new aesthetics, technologies, and concerns for safety. Do you think you can recognize all these classic beauties?
From James Bond to Nina Simone to the Beatles to The Andy Griffith Show, the 60s unleashed radical changes in Western culture. Artists, musicians, designers, and entertainers experimented endlessly with their crafts, discovering innovative ways to please the public. Westerners ended the decade with new ideas about how they wanted to be entertained, accommodated, and advertised to.
Nowhere were these cultural changes more evident than in automotive design. Sixties cars contrasted dramatically with their predecessors, displaying bold styles and performance features. The decade’s vehicles were impacted not only by new aesthetics and technologies but also by new concerns for safety; it was in this decade, for example, that seat belts began to become widespread. Remembering 60s models is the key to understanding how the automobile truly became modern. How well do you recall them?
