Exner's ugliest design
https://journal.classiccars.com/2021/09/18/pick-of-the-day-1961-dart-phoenix-d-500-convertible-rare-piece-of-dodge-history/
A hodge podge of poorly designed body pieces that were somehow forced together. The only thing I like about the exterior of that car is the flipper hubcaps.
However, if I was driving that thing back in 1961? I'd have to pop the hood to "check the oil" at every gas stop...just to watch the pump jockey's eyes widen and hear the sharp intake of breath as his eyes fell on those lovely cross ram intake manifolds.
