Ooops, forgot a couple. The Kaiser Darin and the '54 - 55 Kaiser. They had developed an aluminum V8 for the Kaiser with versions producing over 300 HP, but things weren't going well for the independents in the mid 50's so the V8 was dropped, Kaiser-Fraser production was moved to Brazil where it thrived for years and the Willys division was sold to AMC.
Reminds me, the Willys Aero was about the best looking of the 50's compact lines. These included the Henry J, Rambler, Metropolitan and Hudson Jet.
