Description
Remember these discontinued car brands ? We're breaking down 9 dead car brands that built America, from pontiac history to plymouth history , and the classic american cars and american muscle cars they left behind.
How does a car company that everyone loves just disappear? In this video, I use 10+ years of shop experience to explain what really killed Studebaker, Packard, AMC, Mercury, Plymouth, DeSoto, Saturn, Oldsmobile, and pontiac - from badge-engineering and lost identity to GM and Chrysler cost-cutting that stripped these cars of what made them special.
You'll see the Cutlasses, GTOs, Road Runners and other legends they left us, why collectors are still hunting them today, and which of these failures modern automakers are repeating right now.
Which one did you or your family own? Tell me in the comments - I read every one.
