Here is a neat little test to see how well you know your 1950's era cars.

-----> 1950's car test <-----

ATTEMPT to answer them honestly (no googling, please) and see where you stand on your knowledge of some of these fine cars from a bygone era.

I got a 73% .... the average, 35 out of 48

*** look out for Cano on this one *** ;)

I got 83% (40 out of 48). Probably helped that my father used to own a '57 Pontiac and I grew up around cars from that era.
 
I got 67% right (32 out of 48). I had already known that I would be bad at this, but man, this was hard.
 
I got 65%. I know... absolutely nothing about old Chryslers, especially not De Soto. I got the GM, Nash, Studebaker and (especially) Ford questions right much more often than not, but everything Chrysler related I had no idea.
 
67%, a lot of guessing. If I was born here, I think I would've been better at it.

Then again, probably not. It was fun though. Thanks for sharing. 👍
 
Breaking the streak we have going, I got 23/48, 48%. :lol:
 
Oh joy, oh!! Here I go!

edit:

You got 88% (42 right out of 48).

And two of those were really, really stupid fails. I mean REALLY stupid. Like I blew a car as distinctive as the Kaiser. Blegh, I should have gotten 90+.

Unless you are classic car aficionado, I don't know how you could beat Spacegoat's score. :crazy:
 
Haha, the other games in the website are also cool. The V8 identification game is quite hard with some of those. Thanks for the link Nix!
 
38% (18 of 48)..... I jumped in expecting European cars. I have the poorest knowledge on American ones. One section I got all 4 right on though. :D Was proud. Very proud.
 
46% lol. 22/48. Don't know **** about '50s cars.
 
You got 4 out of 4. Average is 3.6 out of 4 (2989245 players).

You got 77% (37 right out of 48). The average score is 73%.

Not bad for a Australian.

Heh, first manual transmission car I ever driven on my own was a '53 Pontiac, I also grew up around cars of this era and older until I was a early teen.
 
I did the Engine ID 2 and got a 89%, 17/19. Would have been higher if it wasn't for a blonde moment on one of them. I hit the wrong theing and then was like OMG how did I not see that.
 
[color=d50]"AOS got 44% (21 right out of 48) for the 1950s cars."


"Then he got 37% (7 right out of 19) at guessing the engines, though the last one was a dead giveaway since the body was obviously a Ford.[/color]

I was surprised, I would thought I'd score 70%, maybe 75% at best. But to get within 5% of Cano's score. Wow.



And I scored 53% (10 out of 19) for the engine game. Oh well, at least I got all the Pontiac ones right. :lol:
 
I hadn't ever even heard of some of those manufacturers, and whenever I saw one of them, I just picked up the one that looked the worst and chose it. Occasionally the method worked. On the first few questions, I got 4/4 on them... But then comes the rest of it, I'd get 1 or 2. And then I got 4 on the last question. I ended up at 27/48 (56%). I failed.

I then took one on non GM cars. I got 73%. Which is better.

This is not going to go well...

Edit: 79% (!) I'm actually proud of myself. 50's cars are not exactly my speciality. I had to go with my instinct on a lot of the questions. What the cars felt like etc. :)

50s cars I scored a whopping 18/48, 38% :D
I've never payed much attention at all to American cars in general, they don't appeal to me whatsoever. Never have and never will.
