Doesn't anyone proofread this stuff?

I go down to have my Silverado smogged, (every 2 yrs here in Calif.) and as I go to pay for it, I notice a car calendar on the counter for 2017 with the dealers name on it.

Well, I could use one of those and ask if they have anymore. They say they don't but I can take that one.

So I get home and I put up my new calendar.

 

The January picture shows an older Chevy Nova SS, I guessed a late 60's model. As I start to read about it, it says it is a 1974, but clearly I know better than that.

So I google it to be sure and it is a 68 - 72 body style.

You would think that these people making these calendars "with cars on them, for a car dealer" would get them right. Common people!

 

Pretty sad!

 

I am afraid to check out the rest of the calendar to see what I might find!

Yeah saw the same the other day showing a 66 Impala with round tail lights. Everybody knows the last year for round tail lights was 60-65.

that builders realm is dynamical.

trucks have a lot of overlaps too.

 

the 96-98 has 100+ more hp that 8 years of the same looking truck before it... makes for great sales prices for gurus.

 

chevy also had a special purply looking tail lamp for genuine SS models. A really good eye always spotted it.

 

from impala, to chevelle, to monte carlo to the caprice..

altho some argue the last 1990s space ship did not get the details like the old ones.

 

I got to a learning point decades ago.. listen to the startups for the trucks. Dead giveaway.

 

Just starting it up...

Could be worse. They could have given you a shirtless fireman calendar.

My guess.

The people involved with the publishing of the calander were younger generation, no idea or concern about the cars.

I blame the dealer because they paid the bill. My experiance with printing was a proof read, error check before payment.

 

We have had DirecTV for years and the descriptions of the programs has gone down hill, poor grammar and spelling,

again newer generation IMO.

it could be worse, hillary could be president.
