Automobiles of the 1960s2
Some of the most interesting and specialized cars ever offered were built in the '60s. It was the age of the "muscle car," the "ponycar" and the "personal car." It was an era of cheap petroleum and unprecedented technology, forces that made possible the last of America's all-out high-performance Machines. Cars from this decade offered something for everyone. And that's still true, whether you're looking for a car to drive every day, or for an investment that's sure to appreciate in value. Here's your guide to the most desirable cars from this significant era, with complete year-by-year reports on all the models from the major auto makers.
