Always being a fan of General Motors 1959 line-up of cars, I think this PONTIAC black beauty speaks loudly to how really bold their cars were.  I took these photos about 20 years ago at a local old car show here in Minnesota. 

59 Pontiac #1 (2013 10 29 23 36 19 UTC)
59 Pontiac #2 (2013 10 29 23 36 19 UTC)
59 Pontiac #3 (2013 10 29 23 36 19 UTC)

That's when I / you could tell the make of every car on the road because of their distinctive styling.

Now cars all look alike 🙁

So very true!  Each brand had a distinctive look and you could spot them from blocks away.  Not today!

I don't know why, but I like the'59 Pontiac, especially in one color.
