Ted Williams
"In the 1950s, America was at the wheel of the world and Americans were at the wheels of two-toned (and sometimes even more-toned) cars, tail-finned, high-powered, soft-sprung rolling sofas. One car was the most fiftyish of them all. A Buick had those — what? — gun ports along the hood, and a grille that looked like Teddy Roosevelt's teeth when he was in full grin over some whomping big-stick exercise of American might."
