I just never know: is the clue too easy or too hard. The last one certainly was (too easy), and Educator(of teachers)Dan, who asked for the Fifth Avenue, nailed it within minutes of posting. Hopefully, this one will keep you going a few minutes longer.

1964 Studebaker Lark….or not.
I don’t know but damn that is a sexy line.
Looks like American mid ’50s color, chrome, and curves.
Since we’re on a Dodge kick I will venture to guess this is a Dodge Camper Special or one of those Dodge trucks from the mid 60’s through 1971.
It sorta looks like a Corvair to me, but the lousy end detail on that chrome strip reminds me of how badly I hated the chrome strips on my Beetle.
I will say Corvair also.
1961 Lark.
Not often that anything about a Lark is called “sexy”!
I agree, but being Eugene, I bet it’s a wagon……
1961 Studebaker Lark VI or VIII, definitely.
SOF and tklockau have got it — ’61 Lark. There’s a perfectly good crease in the body for the trim to follow, but dammit, we have to make it look different from last year even though our company is circling the drain, so let’s just move that molding a couple inches out of place and see what happens.
not a corvair or a Studebaker …. still thinking
’61 Valiant…? It’d be in keeping with last week’s Mopar theme. Just a shot in the dark, really.
More like the Plymouth Fury then…
I agree with the ’61 Lark.
I bet it’s a convertible (but only because I found one in the same color on classiccars.com).
61 Plymouth Belvidere.
All I can say is, and I’m probably wrong, but it looks like the car from the movie Christine, 1958 Plymouth Fury (found doing a quick search online).
I’m still attempting to learn these cars as many are great.
1961 Plymouth
Corvair was my first guess. No idea on the year though.
I would go with 1961 Studebaker Lark. The body crease, the disjointed chrome trim, the seam where the headlight panel mates to the front fender…they all fit.
I’m definitely thinking Mopar, early 1960s. Valiant, Dart, Fury? One of the above, MY 1961 OR ’62.
It is either a 1961 Studebaker Lark OR a 1961 Studebaker Champ (pickup) which used virtually the same front clip, but with headlamp openings from ’60 (and that detail can’t be seen here).
