Some of the Most Iconic Cars From the 1960s

Mountain Imp

When the Hillman Imp first entered the market in the 1960s, there were already plenty of opulent sports cars on the road. After the fuel shortage brought on by the Suez Crisis in the 1950s, this particular vehicle was introduced because it was more practical and affordable for the working class.

Hillman Imp enjoyed years of popularity before Chrysler started producing comparable cars in the late 1960s, at which point Hillman Imp's sales began to decline. When Hillman Imp finally ceased manufacturing, Chrysler developed models that were identical to theirs and targeted the same market, and as a result, there are now very few of them on the road.

Chevy Stingray

The Stingray was developed after the Chevrolet Corvette gained enormous popularity in the 1960s and was even more incredible than the original Corvette model. Can you imagine riding in one of these bad boys down the street? This specific vehicle was created to blend elegance and high-quality engineering with several cutting-edge technologies.

That had to be how luxury feels, then! On the road, this second-generation Corvette was captivating, adding to the brand's already stellar image. The Stingray is still a highly desired vehicle today.
