The roofline, rear windshield, and contour on the door have a vaguely 1953 Studebaker hardtop look.

Yes it was somewhat ugly. But I can say I was very impressed with the car when I saw it.

It is not something I would ever want to own, but the design was very interesting and a car I am very glad to have had the opportunity to view in person.

Well, both the Studebaker & this car were designed by the same person, weren't they?

The Studebaker was a Raymond Loewy design.

Larry, this is a fascinating car. I don't recall ever seeing it before.

It's important to put bars over your headlights to keep someone from stealing them.
