Trivial Details: Can You Guess These 12 Cars?

“Bro, I told you it was Celine Dion who sang the theme from Titanic,” you groan to your teammate Brett, who erroneously thought Mariah Carey sang “My Heart Will Go On.”

Maybe night bar trivia has become somewhat of a ritual for you and your friends, but your team always comes up a few points short of first place. Tonight looks like it will be no different, because, with one round to go, you are 11 points behind your smug-faced rivals. Then again, the trivia host is unpredictable when it comes to the final topic; it could be anyone’s game.

Allllllright teams!” the host barks into the mic. “Our final round is a picture round. The rules are simple: I will show you 12 close up shots of classic American cars and you will have to give me the year, make, and model of each mystery machine! The picture captions will be your only clues, so read closely. Teams will get one point for each secret part answered correctly. If we catch you using your phones, you will be disqualified.”

The team looks at you expectantly. You, the only car nerd at the sticky, chipped table. And didn’t you just recently visit Chicago for the Muscle Car and Corvette Nationals? The other dorks on “The Quizzard of Oz” team don’t know a spark plug from a transmission spline. It’s up to you.

The round timer is ticking. In the comments, can you identify these cars by year, make, and model, thus propelling your team to victory (and a $50 dollar bar tab)?

Correct answers will be posted at the bottom of this story a week after publication. Be a good sport and don’t cheat!
