Re: Pininfarina Corvette
There are many who believe this car to be the basis if the design for the 124 spider. Tom Tjaarda worked on the Vette, and, of course, did the 124 design. Many similarities between the two cars.

Yes! They say that the slight rear end flares on our cars were inspired by this design.

Re: Pininfarina Corvette

Haha, I love the grille spidernut!
Pininfarina also worked with Nash on a Rambler that looked drop dead cool.

"bidding had reached $500,000 but was not enough to satisfy the car's reserve."
..Gee you wouldn't have seen that coming back in 56'!
