Late-50s car slogans: "Straight Out Of Tomorrow"

Must have been immediately tomorrow from that perspective. The finned look remained strictly in one era.

(Car is a '57 Mercury Montclair. Sure won't see any hunter green/yellow two-tone paint on any modern car, I think.)

Cars today aren't very colorful.

I just looked out the window at the parked cars on my block.

8 Black

7 Grey

3 White

1 Brown

1 Tan

1 Red

1 Green

The green one is a green cab so I'm not sure it should count but, on the other hand, a couple of the black ones a are "black cars"

None of them are two-tone.

Many years ago I almost bought used '55 Dodge that was actually a three tone car, and it was that way from the factory.

It was black, white and pink which sounds awful but it actually looked pretty good at the time.

I didn't get it and wound up getting a '56 Chevy that was sierra gold and adobe beige. That really looked good!
