Those Lark "Daytona" models were fast! I seemed to recall that the
Florida State Police used them in the 1960's as pursuit vehicles
because they were both fast in a straight line and due to their
compact size, they also handled quite well!

Sorry, it may be off-topic, but I'm choking on a hair ball and
couldn't let this go.
Nash (which became part of AMC) was the small Metropolitan.
Studebaker was bigger and bit classier! Kermit the Frog drove a '50
or '51 Bulletnose; the '53 Commander "Loewy Coupe" was quite
impressive in it's day, and don't forget the fiberglass
supercharged'63 Avanti, which was faster than a Corvette.
