For one point: What automobile was this mock-up intended to represent?

Only a correct, complete and specific answer will earn a point; tag-on's to other guesses will not. So, be specific and complete!

Not a Javelin, but you're not too far off.

Sorry Otto, I only do this for a bit of fun.

It looks like you have cropped , disguised and manipulated the original image a fair bit, so for all I know it could be an 1969 AMC Ambassador design study.

It is a mock-up for an Ambassador, but is said to be from the early 1970's.

Wow! Thank goodness they didn't go this route ....... that's one UGLY nose!!!! Although you can see the beginnings of the Matador coupe that finally was produced in the side profile.
