About This Quiz

The American motor industry has a long tradition of producing quality vehicles. From the first car built by the Duryea brothers to the likes of Ford, Buick and of course, Chrysler and Chevrolet, a multitude of models have been produced over the years. 

In particular, Chevrolet and Chrysler, along with Ford, have formed part of America's Big Three for a long, long time. And Chevrolet had the head start on their rivals, Chrysler, having been formed in 1911. By the time Chrysler came around in 1925, Chevrolet was well set, although the young upstarts quickly established themselves.

But the question is, as a car fundi, could you tell their various models apart? If we show you just an image of a car, could you tell if it was made by Chevrolet or by Chrysler? Easy? Think again. It certainly isn't. Over the years, both car manufacturers have made quality cars. Some are harder to identify than others, while others, well the mere silhouette will give them away in a flash. 

So why not take our quiz and see how many cars you can guess are either a Chev or a Chrysler?
