Throttle-back Thursday: Meet the totally dismal 1973 Chevrolet lineup! - Autoweek
2, 1972 issue shows us how far we've come. Forty-three years ago this week, Competition Press & Autoweek introduced you to a crop of brand-new 1973 Chevrolets. Never mind that the Vette wasn’t really new for ’73 … or particularly good for ’73, even if it looked the part of a sports car. Then again, what the heck were we supposed to put up front. It's worth looking back at this sad moment in American automotive history if only to remind ourselves of how far we've come. Yes, there was a point in our past when each new model year brought not just stagnation, but actual regression when it came to performance and styling. Source: autoweek.com
