You're on the road to the right answer. However, it's not quite that simple.

Actually it's both. It was a special edition for the 1961 Motorama, dubbed "Flamingo". It had a front passenger seat that was reversible, which allowed the front seat passenger the opportunity to face the rear seat passengers and converse.
