Thanks for your kind remarks. I could give it a try but turns out someone was thinking just like you, way back in 1952! Carl Evers did a much better job than I could ever do, see image and story here:https://collection.cooperhewitt.org/objects/1108951099/



Thanks for the link. I have a series of prints for the post-Clipper Packards by Evers. I posted them here several years ago. They are interesting ideas with varying body styling ideas. While the Carl Evers illustrations are very well done, I find your work using post-processed photos to give a much better idea of how these ideas might have worked.
