Replying to: fintail (Apr 15, 2008 7:38 am) The Herald, like a lot of oddball foreign cars might not have been an everyday sight in the early 60s but they weren't all that rare either. After all, first generation of Compact "import fighters" was launched by the Big 3 in 1960 to counter growing sales of cars like the Volkswagen Bug and Renault Dauphine. The sheer variety of different imports of various sizes and mechanical layouts available in the early-mid 1960's has never been matched before or since. I think of it as a Golden Age. The MoPar is a '63 Plymouth Fury. I can't make out whether the Ford Wagon is a '61 or '62.

Replying to: andys120 (Apr 15, 2008 8:37 am) I am pretty sure the Ford is a 61. it has small ornaments on the tops of the fenders, I don't think a 62 had these. |

Replying to: andys120 (Apr 15, 2008 9:36 am) I have always used the side trim as the way to distinguish 61 from 62, along with lack of fins, if one is unable to view the grille. |
