The the first two generations of Buick Rivieras were phenomenal and first Gen was most unique in the market at the time, I was there and the words and comments from people the first year was nothing but astonishment and praise and quite often bewildered until it was out for awhile, who and where made, I knew several people who thought it was a European design, the hidden eye Rivieras still look luxurious, classy, sleek and fast looking and as the 425 up through the 455 GS developed, we’re quite powerful and fast for heavy hardtops, they still turn heads to this day.

In the 60's, we could get both DESIGN and POWER. I owned a 1968 BUICK GS-400 Convertable w/Chrome Mag wheels in Scarlett Red w/White Top and Interior. It was MY choice for 1968. Almost ANY car in the 60s was a masterpiece. When regulations came in in the 70s, design became secondary to regulations.

Bob Andrews, John Ebstein, and Tom Kellogg design. Loewy assembled the team, but Andrews, Ebstein, and Kellogg were the real talent. Sherwood Egbert, newly appointed president of Studebaker-Packard had drawn some suggestions and Loewy's team included many of the details Egbert had penned. Egbert had a plan to turn Studebaker-Packard's automobile operation around, and face-lifted Larks and Hawks designed primarily by Brooks Stevens proved relatively popular. Sadly, forty-three-year-old Egbert was diagnosed with cancer shortly after the Avanti's introduction and the board of directors forced him out. Could Studebaker have survived if Egbert's health had held up? Stevens had drawn proposals for thoroughly up-to-date replacements for the Hawk and Lark lines, and running prototypes were built. The Lark Wagonaire proposal used rear doors hinged at the rear after the fashion of the 47-'52 Studebaker sedans and the '61 generation Lincolns. The Scepter coupe was almost as great as the Avanti. One proposal (not built) was a compact sedan with a transverse four-cylinder engine front drive that closely resembled later designs for the Chrysler K-cars. Loewy's studios also designed new sedans and wagons based on Avanti themes, also made it to a couple of prototype pushmobiles. It is my understanding that the foundry at South Bend had cast a prototype block for an all-new V8 engine allowing displacements greater than the 304.5 cubic inch (5-liter) displacement limit of the production architecture. In the end, the S-P board of directors' decision not to allocate funds beyond profits from car production for further automobile development, and after closing the South Bend plant and producing enouth cars to meet contract bligations, Studebaker built their last car on 17 March, 1966.

I agree with some of the others, 68-70 Charger, 67-68 Camaro. Maybe also the 61-63 Thunderbird, early Riviera & Toronado. Anyone else like the 68-69 Javelin? I was a Ford guy but honestly there were some great looking cars from The Big 3 & AMC too. Back in 63 the first time I saw an Avanti it looked sooo advanced, but now I think the Gran Turismo Hawk looks more classic. Just my 2 cents worth

@@orderofmagnitude-TPATP '70 to '73 so not under consideration in a '60s ranking. Also, _FEH!_ The design was polarizing at the time, but in the "love-it-or-hate-it" context, it just never worked for me. I found myself driving one in traffic and outward visibility to the rear was horrible. The '74 Riviera, a pimped-out LeSabre coupe, was a debatable improvement, but the Riviera should have taken a different direction than it did after the '69 models, maybe something closer to the Monte Carlo-Grand Prix path.

Back in 1970, I had a chance to buy a white 1963 Corvette convertible for $2,495. Being that I was barely 21 at the time, the cost of insurance stopped me from even considering the purchase of it. I later found a loaded (air conditioning, tan leather seats, tan vinyl top, brown metallic paint, and power everything) 1961 Thunderbird coupe with 25,000 miles on it. They were only asking $1,495 for it in 1977. It was owned by a bank president, and his wife, who only drove it to Minneapolis, and back. I bought a marina blue 1975 Pacer instead for $2,800, that was on the same used car lot. It ended up being my favorite car.

Great video and some iconic vehicles for sure. My all-time favorites were of the 1970 model year. 1970 was the pentacle year for performance. Regrettably, it was downhill for decades after that. The iconic Chevelle SS LS6 454 and the Camaro RS split bumper LT1 350 Z28 were my all-time favorite vehicles of that era. Both were very quick for their time. The second generation Carmaro is a love hate thing for many. For me, it was one of Chevrolets best designs. Thanks for taking me back in time. Sure, enjoyed it.

Very tough to narrow down to top 5. I have a lot of opinions as to what vehicles were the most beautiful. I agree to this list, though. I have a 1962 Chevrolet Corvair Monza Coupe and I use to own a 1967 Mercury Cougar and I think those two were some of the nicest looking cars of the decade as well. They say the 2nd generation Corvair is the most beautiful, but I’m so split. I like both of the first and second generation Corvairs.

Great choices. I would add the 1966 Oldsmobile Toronado, the 1966 Dodge Charger and the 62 Chevrolet Impala as honorary mentions. IMO, in addition to the basic shape of the car, the key to all the beautiful cars designed in the 1960's was the chrome trim and the wheels/hubcaps. Compare a fully optioned 1962 SS Impala to the bargain basement Biscayne model with very little chrome trim and body-color painted steel wheels with small hubcaps to see the difference.

The 60's had too many great looking cars to even list. These are good choices. But I don't know if this would be my top 5

In 1969 there were only 108 Pontiac GTO Judge convertibles made, and only 274 are known to exist.

Really enjoyed this. Those photos of the 63-67 Corvette.....wow. GM had so many good designs for years and years during the 50s 60s It's strange because GM designs since then have gone downhill at least until around 2010. Now it is just SUV designs everywhere which are not really very interesting.

Good list except for the GTO Judge. I was never a fan of the decals that became a fad of the late ‘60s. Certainly the Mustang belonged on this list, but I thought Mercury’s ‘67-‘68 Cougar cousin was much more stylish, particularly the XR7.

Imho the 67/68 Mercury cougars are nicer looking than the mustang. The 67 cougar was motor trends’ car of the year.

Should've done a top 10 or even a top 20 list. There's enough Iron for both lists. These cars however were truly revolutionary designs when first built and introduced. Good job, and a nice try.

The five 69 chevies on video cover would be my choice. 70-72 C3 Big Block Coupe is one beautiful car. I think rivaling C2.

@@bobcarlino7280 thank you, we wanted a car name but "Mercedes" and "porsche" (pronounced 'porscha' in this case) But thats usually for "posh" types and just wouldn't suit our working class hero background type personality. So my wife geniusely suggested "Camaro" and I just fell in love with the name and it suits her to the ground. Appreciate the comment. Thank you

Except for the 61 Plymouth and Dodge, I cant think of one that I DIDN'T like. Anyone remember the 67 AMC Ambassador DPL 2 door hardtop and the 67 AMC Marlin? And the 68 Javelin SST? Even AMC was making beauties back then. I think 1967 was the top year for styling as a whole.
