My score.  Mixed up the Chrysler New Yorker and the Desoto.

You got 96% (46 right out of 48). The average score is 73%.
Spending time with my grandkids gets in the way of finishing my car but I don't regret it!

I GOT THEM ALL!but I've done it before and I finally got the DeSoto and Chrysler straight. Some of the other games there are fun too.
