Studebaker – Founded in 1852 and incorporated in 1868 under the name of the Studebaker Brothers Manufacturing Company, the company was originally a producer of wagons for farmers, miners, and the military. Studebaker entered the automotive business in 1902 with electric vehicles. Very ahead of their time..they should have stuck to it and perfected the technology. The last Studebaker auto-mobile rolled off the Hamilton, Ontario, Canada, assembly line on March 16, 1966. (Ref)
Corvette – The first generation Corvette was introduced late in 1953. Originally designed as a show car for the 1953 Motorama display at the New York Auto Show, it generated enough interest to induce GM to make a production version to sell to the public. First production was on June 30, 1953 (Ref)
Get outta my car
But you just said that you’d take me home
Well it’s not too far
But there’s no way I can get there alone
I couldn’t care less
Well maybe I could see you next week
But you look a mess
Well look who’s talking you’ve got no right to speak
Get outta my car
You told me that you were a really nice guy
Ooh well I ain’t
Well, yeah get outta my car
Get out, get out of my car

New cars just don’t have that same romance about them, even if you can spend more than a sensible person should, for a set of wheels!
