The difference between now and then is, designers cared about the look under the hood as well as the total package.

The look under the hood is just covered with a piece of plastic anyway. Never could understand that as it must hold heat in, & I thought the object was to dissipate the heat.

No plastic used back then. You must be a youngster.
