YEAR: 1967
BODY TYPE: Sedan
POWER SUPPLY: Combustion
CATEGORY: Concept car
DESIGNER: Giorgetto Giugiaro
A two-door sedan with retractable headlights and very special proportions, with a long hood and a reinforced rear based on the Maserati type 116 chassis. Inside there were four seats, for a 2+2 configuration of pure luxury. While strikingly similar to the Oldsmobile Toronado Thor, with an identical belt-line movement and rear side windows, its front end is somewhat different, where the thinner radiator grille has its motif repeated by a real bumper lower down. The design inspiration for the retractable-lid headlights came from the Mustang Automobile Quarterly. The lid concept is expressed in two fins on the engine hood.
