Can someone 'splain the differences in 55 & 56 Chebies?
55 has an eggcrate grill that is a rounded rectangle, with the cornering lights on the fenders to either side. The 56 has a full-width grill with the markers built in. The 55 has a simple "chrome" spear just on the rear 1/4 panel which breaks up the 2-tone. The 56 has a double-spear that runs all the way to the front of the car for the 2-tone.

46 out of 48.
I too was tripped up by the Willys/Henry J question !
That was kinda fun !
100%. but i will confess that i got the Mercury question correct by comparing their side trim (in front of the rear wheels) to my memory of the same year Chevy products, ie given my Chevy experience, the '54 mercury looked more modern than the '52.
i should be working...
Only 80% some of the Mopars tripped me up.
Oh also the easiest way to tell a 55 from a 56 is look at the rear wheel arch the theis squared off while the 56 sweeps back.
40/48 or 83%. Born in 1982.
The one with the Willys Aero Wing (3rd to last set) killed me. 0/4 on that.

Also tripped up by the Willy's/ Henry J (and I was sure I knew that).
Front shots of 1958 cars wasn't fair (the backs are much easier!)
41/48, born in '81. Only 1/4 in the hood ornament section.
