Thanks, Tony ! I wonder if this one still exists ? It seems there were several Ford Motor Company dreamcars (Fords, Mercurys and Lincolns) that had a similar great, futuristic look to them. (and of course one of them morphed into the Batmobile via Barris.)

Nice! You can see its influence on the 58-60 Lincolns and Continentals.

That's a good observation, John. And when Elwood Engle was brought over and joined Chrysler, he may have carried over some of their design ideas there to morph with Chrysler Corp's own dreamcars and then production automobiles.
We certainly had some amazing idea/dream vehicles during the '50's, '60's and early '70's !
