America's confidence was at its peak in the mighty fifties; while Europe and Japan were still recovering from the material and moral damage of WW2 and thus producing rather humble cars, US car manufacturers created their own league and were not afraid to come up with funny features in the vicious fight for the demanding domestic customer. This fight was most fierce in the luxury segment. Today, all these relics of this lovely era deserve to be admired for their imaginativeness and charm. This little video is an appreciation of this wonderful effort.
