It's a 1960 design proposal for a Chryler De Soto painted by John Samsen.

[Ray B.]

Correct, of course, but I miss the model name of this styling proposal.

Donno... but the bridge is Pont Alexandre III in Paris

Donno... but the bridge is Pont Alexandre III in Paris

I think He answered good!

[Ray B.]

Yes, Paul, but who gets the point now? The common Autopuzzles rule means you do, because you found the model name, which is "DeSoto Paris" (a styling proposal for 1962). Dynamike identified the place but didn't connect it to the name.
Allemano had a different source without the model name. But he has the illustrator's (or stylist's?)name, which I hadn't asked but is quite valuable.
I would feel bad if I didn't give him a point too.
One for each then.

Thanks, Ray! I won't complain, but I feel a bit embarrassed that I got a point for my off-topic comment...

[Ray B.]

Don't thank me, Mike. Whether you didn't read me well whether I didn't make it clear, but you DIDN'T get a point!

Yet, I respect a man who recognizes at first sight the Alexander III bridge, Paris' most beautiful bridge.

[Allemano]

Thanks Ray! Won't complain anyway!

Here are some (small) pics of a clay rendering of the car.

Nice! Thanks. I'll add them to my collection.
