SWEDISH DREAM CAR (Jun, 1959)

Am I the only one who thinks this looks a bit like the Oscar Meyer Weinermobile?

SWEDISH DREAM CAR

SWEDISH carrot juice maker Sig-vard Berggren built his own Future. That’s the name of his dream car which looks like a wingless plane. He installed a Ford V8 engine in a ‘38 Dodge chassis and plans to add a 200-hp mill in the rear, to give the Future a 140-mph-plus speed. That’s a real fast-flying Swede.

FUTURE was built in spare time, looks strikingly like a plane.
FISH EYES are headlights and the huge gills are the air inlets.
