Another set of photos from my archives. I finished the entire file which has a bunch of photos. This group was posted before but have now had a little refinement.

A few Chrysler Show Cars and Concepts. This show is held annually on Father's Day. It takes place at the Edsel & Eleanor Ford House in Grosse Point Shores. It is a unique show that concentrates on automotive design based on annual themes. The show is held in an impressive setting that not only showcases the cars displayed but the beautiful setting of the Ford Estate on the shores of Lake Saint Claire.

I said when I posted these photos from the 2025 Red Barns Spectacular a few weeks ago that I'd seen it before.

What a great show John - in the perfect setting too.   When I was a little kid (in the '70's ), I submitted (well, my Mom did... ) a drawing in a "Future Concept Car"  contest. My submission resembled that 1958 Dual Ghai 400 - I kind of copied it... 😔 😏    I didn't win of course but it's impossible to look at that car and not smile.  😀 😀

Neat car and great pics! Way back when a family on the next block had the turbine.
