    Damn, I had put delta 88 and rocket 88 and I had also put contiental instead of continental. 32 is an oldsmobile. I believe it is the car that was the olds version of the vette. 40 is a Pontiac with a vertical center grille that is split into two sections. I just can't figure out the models. Thanks for the help.

    17...I kept typing in super bird. DUH. :D

    took me a while to stop typing in 'cuda on that plymouth one too.

    Then I spelled it barricuda for about an hour.

    Finally got down to barracuda.
     
  12. I got 86, the pontiac and cadillac model names got me.

    would have been nice to have the freakin answers!!! got 88/100. I thought it was pretty sad that I knew the mazda miata until I saw someone identified the acura NSX.

    what's 8, 20, ... what model pontiac is 16 and 42??

    I bet we could easily give this nob a quiz where he wouldn't get any. year and make....even give a 2 year spread.

    84/100. A few I knew by make, but not enough size to know the model. Alot of these cars were like my parent, or their friends had in the seventies. Thus me being surrounded by those cars made 84% fairly easy.

    91/100 before I read the post. 9 got me as well, so did the acura. Some of em are just a guess at the models since they use the same stuff across the board. Fun...I think.
     
  21. I got 95 before I cheated and came back here, 9,35 and the model on 46 (must be a convertible, they spelled it De ville, not deville)

    I got 88 without cheating. Missed models on a few, but 9, 35 and 46 got me. Thought 35 was a Trans Am and 46 was a Galaxie...Caddy didn't even cross my mind. Oh well.

    Somebody asked about 16 and 42. 16 is a Pontiac GTO and 42 is a Pontiac Grand Prix.

    I wouldn't have gotten anything but the Fords if you had to go on your first guess.

    Most of them I got by typing: Chevrolet, Ford, Buick, Pontiac...etc etc. over and over.

    :D



    Yeah, I cheated in Math in High School too. :D
