Hi List, Several people responded to my quiz about the 22 American cars listed in LIFE Magazine in 1939. Here is LIFE's list: Ford Mercury Lincoln Lincoln Zephyr (?) Cadillac LaSalle Buick Oldsmobile Pontiac Chevrolet Plymouth Dodge DeSoto Chrysler American Bantam Hupmobile Graham Nash Hudson Packard Studebaker Overland The ones in Boldface are now extinct, i.e. 11 of the 22. It's odd that they separated Lincoln Zephyr from the Lincoln. I don't agree that, but if you agree it would be 12 extinct and 10 survivors.
