Driving Museum "Cruise In" - Saturday, June 5, 2021 -- part 3

The museum has a small gift shop and a diner. (to the right in this picture)
Both were open.











The reflectors on the top of the rear fenders look unfortunately added on.  Otherwise, the body on this car is extremely clean and sculptural.

This car looks even better with the bumpers removed (as seen on some of the racing versions).




The fold-down windshield on this car is one of the best design features of all time on any car! (another is the slide-down tailgate/slide up glass of the early 70s GM station wagons)


No external door handles.
Reach in and slide the lever at the rear to get in.
Pull on the strap inside the door to get out.
There being no side windows, the door inner space can be used for storage.
