The BEAUTY & The BEAST #6

Todays decade is the 60's, and our car today is Plymouth.

Which year was the beauty and which year was the beast?

Beauty-'69 GTX, beast-any '60 model. I guess the GTX could be a beast depending on the engine, lol.

Thanks Gene! I think it is fun too. I enjoy seeing what others like and don't like. And as I said in the very first post of this feature, there is no right or wrong answer.

I also said I'd not comment on any of the beauties or beasts that fellow collectors mention. And I won't, because as you've said, we all have different likes and dislikes.

Thanks again!

Christopher...1971 would not count for the decade of the 60's.

George, may I make a suggestion? Prior to the '60s each make meant one style of car line.After that each make had full size, mid-size, compacts, etc. Maybe for
those years you could ask for the Beauty & Beast in a specific
size category, e.g. Beauty & Beast '60s full size Plymouth.
Opinion?
