Concept shite

[londonm]

What's amazing about those Syd Mead drawings is that they would have most likely been done with lighter fuel, magic markers, possibly a little bit of airbrush, and white chalk for highlights. Possibly even gouache. All the skill has gone out of the design business now, with any talentless git jumping on a mac and calling themselves creative.

[Junkman]

Yeah, and the newfangled cars reflect this.

 

BTW, I'm amazed how his red sports car predicts the Plymouth Prowler.

[Partridge]

I bring you the Peugeot Vera

That's just a 309 with a really shit bodykit

Mk1 Rover 800 2-door:

 

Rover 800 Cabrio, which looked a little too "Chrysler" for my liking.

 

Another form of the 800 Coupe:

 

Final form of the 800 Coupe with interesting SD1-like alloys

 

It would have come with this interior:

[Partridge]

I wonder why they didn't use that interior? I really like it.

[Sloth in a bowl]

I want one of these...

 

 

I don't care that there's no place to put an engine or luggage or steering wheel (apparently). I want it now.

[Sloth in a bowl]

How come we haven't had this beauty yet

[Justin Case]

Holy Batshite Robin, it's the 1955 Lincoln Futura

 

[Partridge]

Not shite enough. Time to lower the tone again.

 

Have Citroen C-10 Coccinelle and a Tang Hua Detroit Fish

1964 rear engined Corvette. Looks like stylists liked some of it, the 1967 C3 has more than a hint.

[Wilko220]

Some good ones here:

That rear engined Corvette reminds me of Chaparral race cars...

The Chrysler Norseman. Built by Ghia in 1956 and never shown to the public, due to it being in the cargo hold of the SS Andrea Doria when it sank:

Chrysler 300c concept...I'd buy one.

[Partridge]

It looks like the love child of a 7 series and an X300.

[catsinthewelder]

Or possibly a Kia Magentis with aTatra style, budget facelift.

Toyota RV-2 answers all the questions I have about wanting a camper van that looks and drives like a car and isn't gopping. It's annoying taking a trip to really scenic areas, driving along deserted rural roads and having to do so in our most unwieldy vehicle. I'd buy one:

 

 

 

[Volksy]

It's a real shame that Lancia didn't make that Fulvia concept. Fiat's 127 is pretty too.

Probably why so many have died diving to the wreck.
