96%, 46 of 48. I, too, have excess useless knowledge. Actually the multiple choice made it too easy, except for the Chrysler products (2) I did not know.

100% - I grew up with all of those cars, and their modified brothers on Woodward.

Default I've been told occasionally that I'm older than I look, but.....

"You got 100% (48 right out of 48). The average score is 73%". This result seems to strain that observation- lib

100% You have to figure I was born before any those cars were built. My dad was a mechanic for Studebaker until 1967 and from the time I was young it was always about the cars.

I get the idea that classic Corvette guys know enough about older cars to smoke this test. I am pretty sure that my sons would only get random chance correct answers.

Okay, my youngest son (28) was over this evening and scored a 30%, totally random chance, as he did not recognize any of the pictured cars.

My wife (almost my age) scored a 48%. She was raised more on Jaguars, Corvettes, Mercedes, and Triumphs. One of her Dad's buddies was Bill Tritt (if you remember him from Corvette history) who owned lots of neat cars, including 1960 Ferraris ($$$$$).

96%, 46 out of 48. Being born in 1945 must help!
