The car dealers would have the windows blocked during the changeover too.

From a block away I could tell if a Chevy was 54, 55, 56, 57, 58, 59,
etc. Now you pot a few model years together and it is hard enough to
tell the Toyota from the Mazda let alone a 2010 from a 2015.

I'd love to have a '58 Impala with the chassis, running gear and
technology of today.
