The Pontiac aztek was a 2000s lemon not 1970s
-
The good thing about these cars is that they were not that hard to repair compared to the complicated cars of today !!
-
Many of these cars had “poor performance” because they were never designed for performance, they were economical basic transportation, grocery getters
-
The pinto did everything it was designed to do. It was quite reliable, also the mustang Ii was built on the same platform the pinto was. There are far too many mistakes in this video to list them all in one comment
-
Poorly done not much research or thought.
-
The Gremlin was nothing more than a shortened Hornet. I owned 4 of them. They were economy car and I didn't have any real problems with them. I drove them to work and the grocery store. That's what they were designed for. The only thing that they were bad for was getting loose on a wet road . That was because they were light in the back end .
-
Did anyone else notice in the last clip, that the "James Bond" Matador that jumps the river, is actually a 1974 AMC Hornet X Hatchback? lol
-
Pintos were actually less involved in fires than volkswagon beetles . Look it up
-
My neighbor had a Pacer, he loved that ugly thing. I had a 79 Cordoba, it was a decent car, V8 318 and plenty of get up and go and carried my early family around just fine. It was easy to work on too.
-
When I was in high school in the '70's my girlfriend had a denim edition Gremlin . The upholstery was denim . I really liked that little car and she didn't have any problems with it . I like allot of the cars listed here . Lol
-
Most of these cars were big sellers for their respective companies and those same manufacturers wish they could sell any vehicle in the numbers that they were selling in the 70s.
-
The Monte Carlo is a very expensive car now so I guess you really don't know what you're talking about their guy
-
Monte Carlo does not belong on this list. It was pretty much on par with most late 70s large GM cars who's power and performance were choked out by emissions gear.
-
My girlfriend married me because I told her I have a vette. Imagine her disappointment when I went to pick her up in my chevette. She left me😢😢😢
-
The '70-'77 Monte Carlo was a Bitchin car then and is a Bitchin car now!
-
I had a 1980 Pinto which had over 400,000 miles on it; my first car and the best car I ever owned! Other than burning through clutches (my fault) it was a great car!
-
I still miss Ricardo Montalbon (spelling?) trying to sell me rich Corinthian leather.
-
My first car was a 1977 Volaré. It was a 318 V8 4-speed and was a great car. My dad put chrome rims, white-letter tires and installed a kick-ass stereo. It was a great car, it was quick and fun to drive and overall was a great car. So there. 🤪
-
The Chrysler Cordoba was quite popular in the 1970s. It was the 1980s when it deflated and faded into oblivion. A lot of cars showed in this video are from the 1980s.

You say "that nobody wants back", well... Hi. I'm Nobody. I want ALL of these body styles back. Granted, the designs can be tweaked to work better with safety standards, but I would LOVE to see these body styles return.
