What are some regular classic cars from the 50s, 60s & 70s once common that are now rare or extinct?

I want to focus on cars that you’d rarely see at a car show and used to be common when new, but are non-existent and/or rare. Of course you have plenty of classic cars with plenty of examples left that you’d likely find. 55 to 57 Bel Airs, VW Beetles, 1st and 2nd Gen Chevelle’s, Most Classic Muscle Cars, Falcon’s, etc.

Here’s some examples that I can think of:
1952 Allstate
AMC Ambassador Wagon
Early 70s Plymouth Cricket (and most Chrysler’s Built in Europe)
Plymouth Arrow (and a lot of Mitsubishi rebadges from Chrysler from this era)

What are some good examples of very different cars that share the same engine?

i'll go first. i always got a laugh out of the 2nd gen 4 cylinder Nissan Frontiers sharing the QR25DE with the Altimas and Sentra SE-Rs of the same age.
