They were beautiful. I hate the look of cars of today. They all look alike and have no distinctive features as far as I'm concerned. I can't tell a Mercedes from a Toyota nowadays. Modern cars to me look like electric shavers. I loved the old bumpers with the chrome on those old cars and the bench seats. I hate the fact that every modern car has got to have the cab forward design and the tiny rear window I can't see out of when backing up. I loved the metal door handles on old cars and hate the plastic door handles of today. I hate the fact that every car now has to have plastic bumpers that drag to the ground. Modern cars seem to all have gigantic plastic consoles in the interior front and the awful synthetic fiber made seats and carpets. Every car nowadays seems to have buckets seats. Even the highly toxic urethane paint on modern cars is plastic and makes them look like they're made of plastic.

I just detest modern cars and feel bad sitting in one. That's why I own a '57, a ''61, a '69, and a '73.
