Features:
The 1953 Skylark featured V8 power and a 12 volt electrical system, both a first for Buick, as well as full-cutout wheel openings, a styling cue that would make its way to the main 1954 Buick line. Also making its way into the 1954 Buick line was the cut-down door at the base of the side window line that bounced back up to trace around the rear window (or convertible top). This styling stayed with Buick for many years and can be found on any number of automobile brands to this day.


Features:
What the maker called "The New Cord Front Drive" was the only front wheel drive car built in America in that era. (An earlier Cord was manufactured from 1929 to 1932.) Today, front drive has triumphed as the preferred method of propulsion the world over. In a 1936 model, it was a curiosity.


Features:
Every year, more and more Corvette drivers are discovering the joys of fusing the classic looks of early Vettes with the modern technology of the C4. While the first of the genre were cobbled affairs with questionable geometry and shade-tree mechanics, today there are a number of companies that produce turnkey rolling chassis ready to accept first-generation Corvette bodies. The result of this synthesis is a Corvette that's an absolute joy to drive and open to any styling interpretation the owner chooses.


Features:
One noteworthy addition of optional fuel injection in mid-1957 (also available on Chevrolet Bel Air). Fuel injection first saw regular use on a gasoline engine two years prior on the Mercedes-Benz 300SL "gullwing" roadster.


Features:
The Satellite was available with the newly optional 'Street Hemi' engine in 1966. This engine came compete with the two 4-barrel carburetors and 10.25:1 compression. This body style remained for the following year with only minor trim changes.
