<VV>Retro

 >I was talking about GM repro'ing the '57 Chevrolet as a part of the retro 
trend.

Problem is all of the regulations that have come into effect starting in 
1966 and continuing to this day. Things like the FMVSS that gave us safety 
knobs on the dash up through the 1995 requirement  for 1998 cars and 1999 
light trucks to have dual air bags.

In other words for GM to build a 57 Chevvy (or a 65 Corvair) today would 
either be illegal, unrecognizable, or absurdly expensive.
