Well, SK-10 is right, but it is not the one we had here already:

No, the name was and is right, but you were on the wrong end of the timeline with your guess.

Its not a question of technical aspects, the name is correct, but i.e. there was a Ford Mustang before there was a Ford Mustang... :-\

Is it the prototype before the plan to fit gull-wing doors?
I must be right - that's what it says on Wikipedia

Are you sure about the 1949 date and the assumption that it predates all SK-10?
Sorry for being so critical today, but as far as I know the SK-10 had its single gullwing door first, as the previously posted car from May 1950 (http://www.autopuzzles.com/forum/index.php?topic=2769.0). This puzzle car already has the front styling of the SK-10 from October 1950 (see attached picture). I rather think it is a drawing based on this version, already showing the two conventional doors that came with another prototype just around that time with yet another front.

I see. So it possibly was a final prototype?
Sorry for all the fuzz.

I still think it is a prototype car.

Who knows more?

That's the same one as my picture shows, still with the gullwing door.

O.K. after some research, Iīve found the original cover of this October 1950 magazine.

So, I think at least the time is vixed for this version:
