Love the red coupe.

In 2008 I met the long-retired designer who created the rear bumper design for the '57 ELDO (Ron Hill). It was his first project at GM in 1954 and he recounted his meeting with Harley Earl over his proposal. Years later he worked with DeLorean on the first GTO and Firebirds (entertaining stories about John Z.). Ron created the hood tachometer design and shares part of the patent GM got on that feature.
