Guest Magoo Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 Found: A great little old GM promo film (under 5 minutes) presenting the 1953 GM Motorama. Includes all the cool dream cars from that year: Corvette, Olds Starfire, Buick XP-300, Cadillac LeMans, and more...Video: Introducing the 1953 GM Motorama | Mac's Motor City Garage.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After the 53 finishes you can click on the link of many others, the 1954 is my favorite. In 1954 GM styling really goes forward especially the production cars of Oldsmobile and Buick. Olds and Buick in 1954 are two styling cycles ahead of Pontiac and Chevrolet. You won't be able to get GM styling's "Sweep cut" rear fender styling until 1956 in Chevy and Pontiac won't get it until 1957. The 54 production Olds starfire in the link makes it clear that those cars with that styling were not designed for skirts.

The 1956 Motorama film is especially noted for its weirdness. MCG will be featuring it soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
