Traffic light viewers were not as pictured and described. Shown and described were semaphore turn signals; traffic light viewers were small plastic or glass objects added to the dashboard to refract the view of overhead traffic lights, primarily used for cars with external metal sun shades over the front windshield, which could interfere with the driver’s view of the traffic signal
There were no factory cassette players in 1965. A source I read said that the 66 Mustang was the first car available with factory AM FM 8 track, and I drove one for a short time. The first automotive cassette player I ever saw was a Pioneer Super Tuner that was floor mounted and that was 1972. I put an 8 track in my first 2 cars- a 65 Fairlane and a 70 Dart Swinger 340. Eight tracks were available from everyone in the 70's and were replaced by cassette players in the late 70's early 80's. Also, chrome bumpers were, at least for me, beautiful, but "craftsman" were not involved. That were stamped out of steel and run through a mass produced chrome process and the factories made hundreds per day. They went away because of government legislation requiring low speed accident proof construction. You can thank the insurance company lobby for that.
40 years ago, for the 1984 model year, Chrysler introduced the minivan which Lee Iacocca thought would replace the station wagon. Unfortunately, with the rise of SUVs & crossovers, the popularity of minivans had wained.
Great video! My '79 Thunderbird has "hidden" headlights - exposed when the headlight "doors" are opened. IMO, they are a key design feature. And, yes, they work perfectly!
