Identify this 50s vehicle by its interior
Don't be distracted by the babe, her lovely smile, those amazing legs, the seatbelt, or the rollbar. Focus, fellas.
It sorta has the feel of an early 50s 5-window Chevy pickup for me, but that second window is probably the back window in a sedan or coupe. The bottom of the window seems lower than the bottom of the driver's window and the seatback is split, so it's probably a coupe. I don't think pickup seats were split. Our '51 Ford F-1 wasn't. I'm sure some of you can tell by the dash and steering wheel.

Oops... the way I saved the pic, I cut out much of the upper part.
That's got to be a rollbar... right, WD? I looked at some '53s for sale online and didn't see anything like that in any interior photos.

I would hazard a guess the picture was part of an article looking at safety features of the future :seat belts, roll over protection and air bags.

I read somewhere that climate change has resulted an increasing the gravitational pull and breasts have fallen. I think I heard it on NPR.

From the headlights, looks like a 1930 Willys-Knight 70A Torpedo car in 34B, also affectionately known as the "Bullet".
