A 50's Car test... No cheating!
Alright, you whipper-snappers, let's see how you do.
Be honest with yourself. No cheating.
The average score is 73%.
This will really rattle the cobwebs in the 'ol brain

Loose is when you hit the wall with the rear of the
car, tight is when you hit the wall with the front of
the car. Horsepower is how fast you hit the wall and
torque is how far you move the wall.

Got a 96, missed on the Willys. But then I'm 69 years young so I had an advantage!

I scored 100 but I'm 69 and being a car nut since I was born is a big advantage.

I'm 62 & got 83%. I still can't tell a 55 Chevy from a 56. Those 50s Mopars were hard to tell apart too, I got half. The extinct off brands were a challenge, but I surprised myself by getting all the hood ornaments right... sometimes lucky beats good!
