Buick Y Job is the only one of the five that holds up to the ages. The others aren't aging well.

That is a pretty wild concept car especially for 1958!

Wow. And people thought rear ending a Pinto was bad. Imagine rear ending a Nucleon and either turning into an irradiated mutant or causing a nuclear blast that wipes out the city. Sometimes concepts need to be killed at the design stage.

I agree that the Buick Y is the only one that still looks good. I see shades of the Roadmaster in it.

Nucleon, that gave me a good laugh. Certainly one for the "What were they thinking category" Imagine our cities congested with nuclear reactors on wheels? Wow! A more innocent time.
