I managed a 96%...I grew up with most of those rolling pieces of art.

I got a 96% as well. Does that uhfishally enter me in the geezer club?
Can't believe I don't know the difference between a Henry J & a DeSoto
Custom. Sheesh.

Sears Roebuck sold the Henry J as the Allstate for a couple of years.
They also sold Cushman Eagles as the Allstate Hillster.
That test brought back a lot of memories. My Dad had a Hudson Hornet
like the one shown. My Grandfather a DeSoto. My aunt a '59 Cad. I went
into the Marine Corps with a '49 Ford and had a '57 Olds Super 88 when I
got out.

They also sold A Puch motorcycle branded as an Allstate. I've got one
sittin' under a tree, late 50's or early 60's I believe. It's a two
stroke (maybe 125cc) in a rigid frame with a three speed trans.

I was hoping they'd have a 54 Merc, but had fun with it anyway. Only
scored 84%, but it was a nice diversion, thanks.

I got the Henry J and the Willy's right, but crossed up the DeSoto and the
other one.
