Ahead of it's time

I know, a trite phrase used about cars all too frequently. But sometimes it fits. Designed and made during an era when American taste in cars was for big land yachts with acres of chrome and (in '55) hints of tail fins.

Just look at it...I loved the informative and easy to read dash...an American corporation making a car with European styling. No wonder it was doomed to fail. (about 7 minutes)
