Tk Classic Cars That Get Increasingly Long as You Go
Parking lots today are full of black, white, and gray cars that look pretty much the same and have little to no distinct features. If you're not a fan of speed, you might not recognize any car you see around your city. But that wasn't a problem in the past, because car manufacturers would try to stand out with their latest products.
Weird shapes, colors nobody uses anymore, and sizes for all kinds of purposes in life. Innovation was the key to making a good car, and that meant taking risks and creating vehicles that could flop before becoming a cult classic. From futuristic concepts in the 50s to some really long cars nobody could park in the streets of the 70s, you were always surprised by what the industry could throw at you.
So, to remember those times, here are classic cars, but they get increasingly long as you go down the list.
BMW Isetta
An individual car, a concept dropped too soon.
Messerschmitt KR200
Another classic 1950s car for those with no friends or family.
Fiat 500
A classic that also has a couple of modern versions, all of them with the same measurements as always.
Austin Mini
The original Mini was produced between 1959 and 1969. Nice.
Citroën 2CV
A car that changed everything and was everywhere thanks to its low price.
Opel GT
A great alternative to similar cars in the 60s and 70s, with headlights you'd miss forever.
Volkswagen Beetle
Yes, this classic car is just a tad longer than all previous cars on this list.
Ford Cortina
Some Spanish-speaking countries use “cortina” as slang for short, so it's a fitting name.
Porsche 911
A car with a different version for every decade. Always classy.
AMC Gremlin
One of those cars that belongs on a TV show.
Mercedes-Benz 300 SL Gullwing
A car James Bond would drive if he were German.
Jaguar E-Type Series 1 Roadster
A very unique hood for sure.
Chevrolet Chevette
A classic car for everyone, from a lawyer to a family guy.
Ford Mustang
It doesn't get any more classic than a Ford Mustang.
Cadillac Series 62
Another iconic look from the 60s.
Chevrolet Impala
One of those cars you'd find inside a diner, turned into a table years later.
Cadillac Eldorado
I challenge you to park this thing anywhere.
Lincoln Continental
Lincoln was focused on creating long cars, a sign of power at the time.
John Lennon's Rolls-Royce Phantom V
Almost like a Yellow Submarine.
Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham
A large luxury sedan like no other.
