Some glaring omissions,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: American Cars of the 1960s: A Decade of Diversity (Paperback)
This book has many wonderful photographs, but they can't all be trusted. For instance, there is a photo of a 1969 Lincoln convertible, but Lincoln didn't make a convertible in 1969--this is a custom. Plus, the photos don't really have any order within the articles that they appear.
The biggest omission, however, is that there is no section on regular family cars. There are luxury cars, sports cars, muscle cars, economy cars, etc. However, the bread and butter sedans are missing--my parents 1961 and 1968 Chevy Bel Air; Buick le Sabres, Ford Galaxies, Olds Delta 88s--all missing in action. Oh well, it is still an enjoyable book.
