Oh my goodness! I used to have a series of B&W GM concept and show cars. This one was in the series and I love/loved it!! So many styling cues that found their way into multiple GM cars. EXCELLENT choice for a Something Different John!

This is one very cool concept car.  Some of its more obvious features are its late 50s Vette grille bar and rear quarter shape, its '61 Ventura side spear, its '58 Chev/Pontiac C pillar, its '59 GM windshield/A pillar shape.  It's an attractive concept car, in spite of looking like a kid showing off his new braces.

I love how the designers of the show cars are always trying out styling elements. This one is fascinating.
