First car I remember is our 54' Bel Air, white and blue two - tone...I was a coupla years old. The first "new car year" I remember is 1959, Buicks had those front ends with the canted headlights and toothy grill, it scared me. And a bright red T-Bird at out local rural Ford dealer, it was just "on loan" for a week for display purposes, then returned to a larger urban dealership, no one in our area would have a T-Bird, even if they had the money....that car did draw crowds, though.
