(first posted 12/12/2018) For those of you familiar with the alternative/new wave rock band The B-52’s and their iconic first hit, “Rock Lobster” from the late 1970s, one of the memorable peaks in that idiosyncratic song is lead singer Fred Schneider belting out the lyrics: “He was in a jam. In a giant clam!” And somehow that refrain seems fitting for this car, Chevrolet’s version of GM’s mammoth 1970s “clamshell” tailgate full-size wagons. Courtesy of Road Test Magazine, we can take a glimpse at what life would have been like, circa 1973, in a giant clam.
