Large Cars of the Early 1960s

In high school my best buddy talked his mother into buying a 1961 Impala… stripped. However, the goodies under the hood included the now legendary 409 mated to a 3 on-the-tree shift with a drag rated rear axle. Bench seats, solid black, dog bowl hubcaps on steel wheels and dual exhaust. Many a night we went to the bridges spaced 1/4 mile apart in Trinity River bottomlands. Never beaten. His mom never found out. He wound up with his own ride later… ‘55 Chevy with self-installed 4 speed floor shift and a highly machined 283… very sweet ride. Yeah, I still can remember being a teen… amazing now, just life then.

Cadillac looked much more exciting than Lincoln for 1961 with Jet Age looks.. That 1961 design really popped !.. Lincoln looked dowdy and boring by comparison.. Just my opinion.. Big Chryslers looked solid and aspirational, but Dodge and Plymouth, not so much. Very awkward looking, those.

The Rambler Ambassador at 2:46 and then later Rambler models were the biggest selling cars sourced from US parts in Australia. Similar story for a while with locally assembled Studebakers selling well. Selected Rambler models were assembled at the Australian Motor Industries (AMI) factory at Port Melbourne from 1961 to 1974 in right hand drive. Fitted with as much Australian content as possible like upholstery, paint and springs . AMI also assembled Triumph, Standard, Mercedes and the Toyota. The Toyotas assembled here starting in 1963 or so were the first Toyotas assembled outside Japan. Toyota were very interested in the Mercedes Benz 220S and 220SE (a smaller engine simpler version of the 300SE at 17:54) being assembled by AMI. Useful to compare the Mercedes OHC 2.2 litre six with the later Crown 2.3 litre ohc six. Toyota liked AMI so much that they bought the company and had them concentrate on Toyotas only Most of the other US cars only made it to Australia in tiny numbers as high taxed imports needing expensive local conversion to right hand drive. Lots of the british models made it here unless they duplicated or cannibilised local Holden, Ford or Chrysler parent companies lically made models. The non luxury cars were usually locally assembled to keep prices down

Showed up on my feed, awesome presentation! Originally from Flint, everyone in the family worked for GM in some capacity. My Uncle was lead at age 25, Engineering at AC Delco. He went on to play a pivotal role and had his hand or stamp on virtually everything that came out of AC Delco from 63 on through OBD1. He transferred to overseeing European operations based out of Southport England for a few years to be brought back for the new "at the time" Pontiac instrument cluster glass which required what he said was "a crap tonne of math" to get the correct shape. (87 or 88? Not sure) and then the New Presidential Limos. Had always asked and or mentioned that he should have wrote it all down but to him it was just a job and he could have cared less.

Having learned to drive in a new 1960 Mercury I can testify that the end of the era of the 60’s “land barge’ is not a loss for driving enthusiasts. Floaty and boaty with no feel of the road in the steering and totally inadequate brakes. Tire squealing through corners was common at low speeds. When you backed up you could tell when to stop by the sound of the crunch into a nearby object.

Great highway cruiser & I triple dated often due to the huge interior. At a time when buddies were driving '55-'57 Chevies, fifties Fords & odd hand me downs, the Merc stood out. Buried the needle around 3 A.M. on I-96 just outside of Detroit to see what that 430 could do. The Merc was rock solid & held to the road very well. Of course, I got caught by the state police with one dandy of a ticket, 120 in a 70. The trooper said I was going faster but 50 over was considered reckless driving.
