Cool stuff! That Imperial with the Mobile Executive feature is quite rare. Thanks, David!

Thanks David......it`s somewhat cathartic to recall how it felt first seeing some of these amazing next-worldly features

Those tailgates get me every time....  electric fold down or that Ford multi-hinge  are each an engineering marvel.

I was surprised to not see a Ford "rim-blow"  steering wheel.  A friend had about a dozen Fords with that option. Pretty cool. 😎

What a great video of some of the best cars ever. I loved every single one of them. I love this video it brings back such great memories of the '60s and 70s when the stylist and the designers and the engineers had some great great ideas. We don't see that too much anymore do we ?  Everything is all the same and looks alike. 

I prided myself as a young kid four or five years old and always knowing what car was going down the road.

My Mom has told me that Dad would always catch up to a car to find out if I knew it was a DeSoto a Chrysler a Plymouth or whatever and I was always right. Nowadays you can't tell one car from another especially with SUVs. They all are styled the same. You can't tell a Mercedes-Benz from a Kia to a Subaru to a Ford escape or whatever I'm sure you guys all know that too you see it all the time. 

In the words of a famous song from a famous band 'Let the Good Times Roll'.
