1. 1958 Corbin Sparrow
   1947 Hudson Super-6 Convertible
2. 1947 Flanders Model "20"
   1958 Iroquois Model D

This car started out as a 1947 Hudson Super-6 Convertible before it met custom auto legend George Barris (who would go on to make the iconic Batmobile from the TV series). This car was chopped and sectioned, given a removable hard top, had a1952 Hudson Hornet 7X engine installed, along with a GM 4 speed hydramatic transmission and a 1950 Oldsmobile 336 rear end. It was also given that wild purple paint job to finish the job.

   Willys Coupe
2. Lincoln Zepher
   Ferrari 365

The Buick Roadmaster was built between 1936 and 1958 (and again from 1991 through 1996) and was considered the flagship of the Buick fleet from '46 through '57. This car was built in 1949 and is an example of a fifth-generation Roadmaster — a revamp of the previous model and the first Roadmaster built with post-war styling.

1. Chevrolet Captiva
   Ford Kuga
2. AMC Matador
   Pontiac Sunfire

Built in two generations between 1971 and 1978, the American Motors Corporation's Matador replaced the company's well-known Rebel model.

1. Dodge Coronet
   Cadillac Eldorado
2. McLaren F1
   Ford GT

The first Dodge Coronet was introduced in 1949 and enjoyed a long production life, with seven generations being made until 1976. This model is an example of the fourth generation of the Coronet, made between 1957 and 1959, and was built on the DeSoto Fireflite chassis.

1. Packard 120
   Ford Deluxe Coupe
2. Glasspar G2
   Ford Model T

The Ford Deluxe Coupe, built between 1937 and 1940, is a favorite model of hot rodders who want to show off their skills at automobile modification. This model was also a favorite of early stock car racing. When new, this model offered several body styles, including coupe, convertible, sedan, van, station wagon and pickup truck.

1. Pontiac Silver Streak
   Ford Galaxie
2. Chevrolet Spin
   Plymouth Belevdere

The Pontiac brand was started in 1926 by General Motors and soon became a favorite with automobile shoppers. The brand would go on to produce some of the most iconic models in automotive history, including the Firebird and the GTO. The Pontiac Silver Streak pictured here takes its name from the streak of chrome going down the front of its hood.

1. Plymouth Fury
   Ford Raptor
2. Chevrolet Camaro
   Mercury Montclair

The Chevrolet Camaro hit the streets in 1966, designed to take on Ford's runaway hit, the Mustang. The Camaro soon found its audience and, except for a hiatus between 2002 and 2010, has been a mainstay for Chevy ever since. For a time, the Camaro shared a platform with the Pontiac Firebird, which might explain the vehicle pictured here.

1. Dodge Aries
   Oldsmobile 98
2. Mercury Cougar
   Pontiac GTO

The Oldsmobile 98 (which would later be spelled Ninety-Eight and finally Ninety Eight at the end of its run) was introduced in 1941 and took its name from its "Series 90" frame and its eight-cylinder engine. It was Oldsmobile's top-of-the-line model for many years, and would go on to have 12 generations, ending in 1998. This model, a 1949, is an example of the third generation, although we're pretty sure it didn't roll off the showroom floor with that amazing green paint job!

1. Ford Capri
   Packard Caribbean
2. Chevrolet Orlando
   Buick Special Coupe

The Buick Special was the automaker's entry-level full-size car when it hit the streets in 1936. The line would have a long life, with seven generations being produced from 1936 through 1996. The first generation, produced from '36 through '49, was available as a coupe, sedan, station wagon or convertible.

1. AC/DC
   The Hooters
2. ZZ Top
   REO Speedwagon

The REO Speedwagon was a light truck first built in 1915 and continued into the 1950s and were developed into early fire trucks, tow trucks, delivery vehicles, hearses and ambulances. This 1915 example of an REO Speedwagon was refurbished by The Creative Workshop in Dania Beach, Florida.

1. Ford Thunderbird
   Chevrolet Duo
2. Plymouth Plaza
   Cadillac Tonneau

When it first debuted in 1955, the Ford Thunderbird was a convertible two-seater sports car. Believing having only that configuration available was holding back sales, Ford put an extra row of seats in the back for the second generation. This proved to be the correct strategy, because sales skyrocketed at that point. The T-bird enjoyed 10 generations of production, ending in 1997, with an 11th generation produced between 2002 and 2005.

1. Packard Balboa
   Ford Maverick
2. Dodge Charger
   Chevrolet Camaro

The "General Lee" from "The Dukes of Hazzard" was a 1969 Dodge Charger. Actually, because of the stunt work involved, there were more than 300 Chargers used in the run of the show from 1979 to 1985. Some 1968 Chargers were modified and also used as the hero car; 1970 Chargers were never used because they were too different to modify.

1. Pontiac Torpedo
   Hudson Hawk
2. Chevrolet Master Coupe
   Jaguar XK120

The Chevrolet Master Coupe was a vehicle produced from 1933 to 1942. The model pictured here is a first-generation 1933 model, which replaced the Eagle line of Chevy vehicles. During its run, the automobile was available as a two-door coupe, a four-door sedan or a two-door pickup truck.

1. Chevrolet Niva
   Dodge Dart
2. Fiat 600
   Opel Mokka

The Fiat 600 was a rear-engine two-door saloon car made from 1955 through 1969 and was designed to compete with the Volkswagen Beetle and the Renault 4CV at the time. The vehicle was produced in many countries during its run, with an option of three different inline-four engines. The Fiat 600 pictured here has been modified to run on electricity through the use of Absorbed Glass Mat (AGM) batteries.

1. Pontiac Streamliner
   Ford Meteor
2. Plymouth Savoy
   Cadillac Eldorado Brougham

If you want to make a statement, show up in a Cadillac Eldorado Brougham. This customized version is a 1957 model from the third generation of the Eldorado's run. The Brougham models were hand-built and were considered ultra-luxury vehicles — and with a sticker price of just over $13,000 cost twice as much as the regular Eldorado.

1. Plymouth Plaza
   Ford Fairlane Crown Victoria Skyliner
2. Pontiac Catalina
   Cadillac Model M

The 1955 Ford Crown Victoria Skyliner had a very distinctive feature — a smoked acrylic glass window over the front seat for that feeling of being out in nature without actually having to be out in it. The Fairlane Crown Victoria Skyliner was only produced in 1955 and 1956 and was followed by the Fairlane 500 Skyliner.

1. Packard 200
   Rolls Royce Wraith
2. 1936 Delahaye 135
   Oldsmobile 98

Although it was made between 1935 and 1954, there were only about 2,000 Delahaye 135s ever built. This luxury car had several different body styles over the years, and was also a successful racing vehicle, winning the 1937 Monte Carlo rally and the 1938 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1938. The beautiful 1936 Delahaye 135 pictured here was modified by Figoni & Falaschi of Paris.

1. Dodge Six
   Chevrolet Master Deluxe
2. Ford Model A
   Opel Insignia

The 1941 Chevrolet Master Deluxe had been upgraded and redesigned from the previous year's Master model, given a new grille and suspension, along with design modifications to make the vehicle curvier. The line was shelved, however, in early 1942 because of the production needs of World War II. Similar models resurfaced in 1946, with their names changed to Stylemaster and Fleetmaster.

1. Dodge Dart
   AMC Javelin
2. Ford Aerostar
   Pontiac Torpedo

With both pony and muscle car variants, the Javelin by American Motor Corporation (AMC) was built in two generations between 1968 and 1974 and was marketed in the United States and other countries. The second generation had an option for a 6.4-liter V8 engine that could generation 325 horsepower and was used by the Alabama Highway Patrol for high-speed pursuit and response runs.

1. Plymouth Fury
   Packard Super Eight
2. Pontiac Chieftain
   Chevy Bel Air

When introduced in 1950, the Chevrolet Bel Air was at first a trim level for other vehicles. As of 1953, however, the Bel Air became its own model. Available with a 4.3-liter small-block V8, the 1955 Bel Air was a mean machine, with all-new styling from the previous generation. The car was produced in seven generations and was finally discontinued in 1975 in the U.S. market.

1. Rolls-Royce Silver Wraith II
   Chevrolet Camaro
2. Jaguar XF
   Bentley Mulsanne

This vehicle is a hybrid (in the structural sense, not in the powerplant sense) of a Volkswagen Beetle and Rolls-Royce Silver Wraith II. Because there were so many Beetles made in its long, long production life, the spunky little car is a favorite of some automotive mad scientists who want to experiment and make something that didn't exist before (and, in some cases, possibly shouldn't have existed).

1. Ford Deuce Tudor
   Chevrolet Series D
2. Ford Model S
   Plymouth Sapporo

This 1932 Ford Deuce is a Tudor rather than a Coupe (Tudors are a bit longer than a Coupe), but it's still a beautiful car, even if it doesn't have a song written about it. The Ford Model B, of which this car is an example, is a favorite of hot rodders and car customizers around the world. The Model B was built between 1932 and 1934. The Tudor, by the way, gets its name simply because it a "two-door" model.

1. Chrysler Windsor
   Plymouth Savoy
2. Packard Clipper
   Ford EXP

The Chrysler Windsor was built between 1939 and 1961 in the United States (it lasted until 1966 in Canada) and was positioned just above the entry-level Chrysler Royal. In all, eight generations of the Windsor were manufactured, each reflecting the technology and style of its era. The first generation, like the car pictured here, was available in sedan, coupe, convertible and station wagon body styles.

1. Chevrolet C10 Pickup
   Ford F-100
2. Dodge Crusader
   Koenigsegg Agera RS

The Chevrolet C/K series was the automaker's main pickup offering between 1959 and 2002. The letters indicate what kind of drive train the vehicle offers; "C" means front-wheel drive while "K" trucks had four-wheel drive. Throughout its long production life, the C/K series only had four generations and was eventually replaced by the Silverado line.

1. Mitchell Model E-40
   Oldsmobile Super 88
2. Dodge DU Coupe
   Pontiac Bonneville

In the midst of the Great Depression, automakers were always trying to come up with ways to convince a frugal public to spend their money on cars. The Dodge Model DU was introduced in 1935 and was part of the automaker's "New Value" line. The coupe model of this line, like the one pictured here, retailed for $645 at the time.

1. Studebaker Speedster
   Cadillac Series 62
2. Packard Hawk
   Cadillac Series 10

With its torpedo-style body and smooth lines and curves, the Cadillac Series 62 was a head-turner when it first hit the streets in 1940. The full-size luxury car was a status symbol for the times and was built through seven generations, finally being retired in 1964 in favor of the DeVille and Calais models.

1. Chevrolet Corvair
   Pontiac Streamliner
2. Oldsmobile 442
   Plymouth De Luxe

The full-sized Plymouth De Luxe debuted in 1941 but was pulled out of production the next year because of America's entry into World War II and the wartime production prioritization that came with it. After the war, the De Luxe came back in 1946 and lasted until 1950. There were two trim levels available: the De Luxe and the top-of-the-line Special De Luxe (both of which actually sound pretty special)

1. Oldsmobile Series 70
   Plymouth Roadrunner
2. Mercury Comet
   Ford Customline

Built between 1952 and 1956, the Customline was a mid-range sedan model offered by Ford, nestled between the entry-level Mainline and the well-equipped Crestline (from 1952 through '54) and Fairlane models. It was made available in two-door and four-door sedans, as well as a two-door coupe and four-door station wagon body style.

1. Ford Taunus 2000 GXL
   Pontiac Firebird GL
2. Chevrolet Brookwood
   Dodge Phoenix

The Ford Taunus was a car that got around on the global stage. It was built by Ford Germany between 1970 and 1982, as well as in Argentina from 1974 until 1984 and in Turkey from 1984 until 1994. The model shown here is a 1974 Ford Taunus 2000 GXL, produced in Argentina. It was followed in Germany by the Ford Sierra.

1. Packard 300
   Buick Y-Job
2. Lincoln Futura
   Cadillac Cyclone

Car customizer George Barris altered a lot of vehicles during his career, but the most famous is the Batmobile, built for the "Batman" television show that ran from 1966 through 1968. Barris based his vision off a concept car — the 1955 Lincoln Futura — which had unusual angles and a sharp, wing-like shape.

1. Bentley Continental
   Oldsmobile F36
2. SS Jaguar
   Studebaker Phaeton

The Oldsmobile "F' and "L" series were made from 1932 through 1938 — the "F" came with a straight-six cylinder engine, while the "L" series was bigger and had a straight-eight engine. In 1939, the "F" series was renamed "Series 60," while its "L" sibling became the "Series 70" and "Series 80."

1. Chevrolet Nova
   Ford Pinto
2. AMC Pacer
   Dodge Hellcat

Built between 1975 and 1979, the American Motor Corporation's Pacer made an impression on the car-buying audience of the day, with some loving it and others loathing the design. The Pacer generally got very good reviews for the time and is still seen as being quite collectible. The AMC Pacer coupe pictured here, by the way, has been modified to a Pro-stock dragstrip car.

1. Subaru Outback
   Chevrolet Bel Air Nomad
2. Studebaker Wagonaire
   Packard Station Sedan

The Chevrolet Bel Air was restyled and given a more powerful engine in 1955, but sometimes you want a car with some growl that can still carry kids and groceries. Enter the Chevrolet Bel Air Nomad. This two-door station wagon still had the style and substance of the Bel Air line, but the extra cargo room made it the right vehicle for the job for many families.

1. Dodge Charger
   Cadillac Series 61 Sedanette
2. Holden Efijy
   Rolls-Royce 1EX

Hitting the roads in 1938, the sleek Series 61 replaced Cadillac's Series 60/65. By 1948, the post-war model had been inspired by the designs of the day; it sported, for example, tail fins inspired by the Lockheed P-38 fighter plane. The Sedanette also offered V8 power and a smooth ride.

1. Plymouth Valiant
   Tucker Torpedo
2. Packard 100
   Studebaker President

The Studebaker Corporation, headquartered in South Bend, Indiana, was one of the premier automakers in the United States. Founded in 1852 (it originally made wagons, buggies and equipment made for horse-drawn vehicles), the company eventually went out of business in the mid-1960s. The 1939 President pictured here was one of Studebaker's top-of-the-line vehicles for the time. It was made in four generations from 1926 through 1942, and then from 1955 through 1958.

1. Packard Executive
   Chevrolet Corvette
2. Mercury Marauder
   Ford Model A

The Model A had big shoes to fill when it took over from Ford's Model T, which was the first car built for middle-class families for decades. The Model A first hit streets in 1927 and was replaced by the Model B in 1931. In order to appeal to buyers, the Model A was available in more than 30 body styles. Today, the Model A is a favorite among car customizing crowds.

1. Mercury Cyclone
   Ford Model T
2. Chevrolet Series H
   DeLuxe Plymouth Six

When the Great Depression hit, automakers scrambled for designs that would sell in a market that had hit the hardest of hard times. Plymouth's answer in 1933 was the DeLuxe Plymouth Six, a model which would become one of the automaker's best of the time and in later years a favorite of hot rodders and car customizers.

1. Rolls-Royce Ghost
   Fiat Ghia Jolly
2. Volkswagen Type 1
   Plymouth Trail Duster

In 1958, Fiat sent a shipment of its 600 model to the Ghia design house in Italy. The result was the Fiat Ghia Jolly — a car made for fun in the sun. Sold in Europe and the United States, the Jolly had a very limited production run and cost twice as much as the standard Fiat 600s.

1. Holley 1904
   Carroll Six
2. Packard One-Twenty
   Lincoln Model L

Made between 1935 and 1937, the first-generation One-Twenty from the Packard Motor Car Company, shown here in the touring sedan body style, offered an inline eight-cylinder engine, newly created independent front suspension and a lot of style. The vehicle's second generation was in production from 1939 through 1941, when it was then replaced by the Packard 200.

1. Chevy Camaro
   Ford Mustang
2. Chevy Corvette Stingray
   Land Rover Defender

The third generation of the Chevrolet Corvette, knowns as the "Stingray," hit the streets in the 1968 model year. A drastic redesign from the second generation, known as the "Sting Ray" (two words), the "Mako Shark II" body style would define the vehicle's look for generations, to the current day.
