Cars of the Sensational '60s

by Dan Lyons

It was "anything goes" in the automobile business in the 1960s. After overdosing on chrome and high-rise tailfins in the 1950s, automakers rolled out a dizzying variety of styles, shapes and sizes in the irreverent '60s. The resulting fleet included some of the most unique cars ever muscle cars like the GTO, Charger, Camaro and Shelby Mustang; luxury cruisers like the Chrysler 300 letter cars, elongated Cadillacs and big-body Thunderbirds; and oddities like the Corvair and Avanti that blazed their own trails. It was a fascinating era with fascinating cars... Cars of the Sensational '60s.
