Very cool John. I have the model in 1/43 scale and it's one of my favorite concept cars.

That's one I was always intrigued by. I wish I had the fortitude of Mike Detorrice - I was 9 in 1956. I wrote to GM about my love of cars and which GM models I liked the most. They sent me back a bunch of gorgeous studio B&W's on concept cars; this one, the Club deMer, all the Firebirds and so many more. I wish I knew what happened to them. GREAT series John, thank you sir!!

thats one of my favorite concepts. This brief video mentions features to later appear on production models. I thought of the tail fins on the 59 Impala. thanks John

Bob, I can't say I'm surprised. 

Gents, thanks for your replies.
