Toyota Crown Super Saloon, 1971. Just as Chrysler had fuselage design in the early 70s, Toyota had spindle styling epitomised by the S60 series Crown with its body coloured integrated bumpers and rounded aesthetic. The Super Saloon was the new flagship model but the S60 was a sales flop and was the last Crown series sold in the US until 2022. The S60 was facelifted to give it chrome bumpers but was replaced by the more conventionally styled S70 in 1974. The Crown is one of Toyota’s and the world’s longest running models, running continuously since 1955 through 16 generations.
