Anyone know anything about this Packard Concept from 1955?

Sorta reminds me of this rare 1992 Fleetwood Coupe, only 442 made.

There is some info and many pictures online. Perhaps the top is retractable.

@chav, Thanks. I find most of the Packard concepts from the early-to-mid-fifties to be oddly proportioned. Yet, there are some interesting elements. For instance, the extended rear quarters on this one seem to be a nod to the upcoming fin fad. 

@jkuvakas You may like this article, I didn't read it, just found it in the search for the car above, looks promising ...

@chav, Great article, thanks!

Interesting car and good article, and I thank all involved.  I like my Packard 1:43 models, and this concept, the Request, is a favorite:

The top is totally ugly! Sorry that I'm not as reserved as the rest of you.

@bob-jackman ,my first thought when I saw the picture was "this car would've not saved Packard" mostly because of the disproportioned top. Don't quote me on this, but somewhere I read the top may be retractable hence the design limitations.

Thanks Chav. I had heard that that too but I thought that a concept car not only predicted the future but also stimulated potential customers. This clearly would not have done the latter IMO.

Trying to get as close a look at the rear deck configuration in the present photograph, it does appear to my eye that the deck lid closest to passenger area does open forward, which implies to me that you are correct in suggesting the roof is retractable, giving reason to the large trunk area.

Talking of the Predictor, first shown in January '56, it did please the public and press, garnering 'pre-production' orders too, but sadly it predicted a brighter future too late and the bankers foreclosed nonetheless.

It would have been interesting to see what a production version of the Predictor would look like. 

thanks Chav, the link to the 1958 Ford Nulceon makes interesting reading too. Imagine suggesting a nuke powered car today!
