Futura

Ford Motor Company chose the Chicago Auto Show to introduce the world to the sensational experimental car called the Futura. Billed as a "spotlight on tomorrow," the Futura is over 18 feet long, 7-feet wide and only 52.8 inches high. Built on a special Lincoln chassis with a body fabricated by Ghia of Turin, Italy, the Futura features a double-dome clear plastic canopy that rear back when a door is opened, and come down when the door is closed. A transmission interlock keep you from driving with your lid flipped. Gill-like slits feeds air into the windowless vehicle, and out back a microphone pick up and amplifies outside sounds.
