        But they fit with the future as imagined at the time.
  I always liked the Pontiac Firebird (not the one from the 60's and up) 
and Club de Mer, as well as the Lincoln Futura (which became the 
Batmobile on TV) and Ford Levacar (a GEV which was  a sort of predictive 
metaphor for the US auto industry since it was impossible to steer or 
make go anywhere except down) Ah, the 50's and early 60's had some 
wonderfully wild and daffy concept vehicles. Where did all that 
creativity go?

                                                                cat
