Part 2
_______________________________









The interior of the La Galaxie is amazing!

Click on the image below to go to IMGUR and view an image sized at 1,024px X 768px which you can zoom in on! You'll get an image which allows you to pretend your nose is pressed against this Forbidden-Planet-like dashboard!




The horizontal feature on top in the center actually extends forward through the lower edge of the windshield and out onto the hood of the car!





And notice that there's another one on the passenger's side! I have no idea what either of them are for -- but I love 'em!



1959 Cadillac Cyclone XP-74









1962 Ford Cougar



1961 Ford Gyron









1958 Ford X-1000







Syd Mead's concept car




1962 Ford Seattle-ite XXI




The Seattle-lite was an unusal six-wheeled automobile that incorporated advanced innovations -- but a full-size version was never built, despite what seems to be one in the picture below.



This bit if trick photography imployed the same techniquie used in Darby O'Gill and the Little People -- the lady is standing further back from this 5/9 scale model than she seems to be.



But these two gentlemen are either right beside the model or their giant mutant executives (a frightening thought . . .
Shocked)
