They just got it in their head about buying a car that was cheaper, lasted 2 to 3x longer and held its value also 2 to 3 times better.....all versus it being more stylish and riding better for about a year and a half......as far as Chevy style, 64 was ok ; buy really started in 65 and on up and ending in VERY early 80s for everything but the camero and corvette
