The Weird Chrysler Cars of the Early 1960's

One criticism and one praise.
1. The part on asymmetrical cars is way off the mark. There was no such thing. It was usual to show two alternative design solutions on a single clay model. It's a lot of work, you know.
2. I fully agree about the similarity between 50s grills and contemporary grills. They are both oversized and have weird outlines. Generally speaking there is much 50s design in modern cars. Toyota and Honda are clearly 3-dimensional at the tail lights, alluding at yes... tail fins.
