Yes, it is.
For the point I'm expecting the designer's name (because that's a crucial part of what it is) and when it dates from!

Sorry.  I found a reference to a book in the library that I thought might help me, but I haven't had a chance to get down there.  I forgot that this was locked.  My bad.  Go ahead and open it up.  Maybe it will still be unsolved after I get a chance to go to the library.

That's a good long shot, because it's (almost) his the bullseye!
It's actually a 1957 Studebaker proposal but is by Raymond Loewy, or at least by Loewy Associates, probably not the Man Himself!

Well done; you're not going to be able to answer many more Rookie puzzles!

I'll post a couple of other shots of it later.
