39BuickEight Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 All eras of cars look alike if you want them to thanks to confirmation bias. Cars largely now look alike just like they did 100 years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cars largely now look alike just like they did 100 years ago. Agree somewhat, I have problems myself by identifying some cars especially from the pre-war era not to mention the wooden wheel cars but they all have a distinctive feature that set them apart when looked close at. The problem is the influx of foreign cars now opposed to almost all American market back them. I can’t tell the difference from a Toyota to a Nissan specially from an air shot or can’t even tell the difference if they remove a name badge on the ground. As a kid, I learned to identify cars by exterior features as portholes for Buicks, Stars and Stripes for Pontiacs and those distinctive tail fins of the Cadillacs. It could be that I grew up on the 50’s! Based on that, I agree with Oldtank about the “jelly beans” theory. My personal 2 cents.

Same day. Looks like the nailhead / ST400 powered 48 Ford F1 pickup that I used to have. Except that mine still had 1948 paint on it. A fun sleeper. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
