Where To Watch
Do you know the family cars from classic Sixties sitcoms?
Try to match the make with the model!
Beep! Beep! Classic cars are coming through!
One of the many pleasures of watching vintage television is spotting all the classic cars. The Sixties were a particular beautiful era for automobiles (of course, there were still some fin-tastic Fifties rides still rolling around).
Every sitcom family needed a car. (Not to mention a sponsor.) Put your car knowledge to the test and try to match the make with the model. Good luck!

11/11. Loved those cars back then. They had a lot more style than the cars today.
7/11
Thought I was more of a car person than this. What a clunker I am.
Time to check the spark plugs. 🥴

7/11. Mercury did me in. I can't believe Mercury was the answer three times in a row.
6/11. Did great early in the quiz and began to falter toward the end.
Same thing happened to me.
I'd never be able to identify a car from back then by sight, but got most of them (7/11) from repeated exposure to the make and model being said over and over in commercials of the era.
I used to drive a Toyota Plethora, but I traded it in for a Mazda Miasma.

4/11. My dad always drove Fords & I never paid enough attention to other cars.
9/11. Shoulda looked at the grill on #11. Not a MeTV show but they had some great rides on Hazel.
Yes they did. I watch Hazel every morning 😉
9/11 Missed 3 & 5. Would never have guessed that big boat of a car was a Fury. Thought Oliver drove a Caddy.
Yeah, I agree with ya on the Fury one. My Mom had a light blue Fury but it didn’t look like that 🤔
On Happy Days I think that Fonzies motorcycle was a Harley but I wonder what kind of car Ozzie Nelson drove on The ADVENTURES of Ozzie and Harriet.
I don’t recall them ever driving a car. I know on the radio show he takes the bus.
