In 1967, Chevy had the Biscayne/Bel Air, Caprice, and Impala 2 doors all with different roof lines. As well as 4 door hard top and 4 door post/sedan variants, convertible, and wagon. I know the guy with the wagon pictured above. It is a 427, 4 speed, bench seat wagon. With wood paneling. Factory.

But screw BMW for trying to do the same thing with their 3’s and 4’s and GT’s and GC’s and convertibles and wagons.

But the GT is so ugly

I’m convinced at one point every single GM product was the exact same car with different headlights and tail lights.

Definitely not in the 60s. GM and Ford at least had more visual variance between platform siblings. And GM had a ton of variance in engines. None of the 350’s between Olds, Pontiac, Buick and Chevy were identical. Same for the 455’s and 454. 326/327.

You’re thinking of Mopars. A 383 was a 383, 440 was a 440, Hemi was a Hemi regardless of what it was in. Dash boards were damn near identical too. Plyouths shown first.

“Wow, you don’t see many of those.”
