I can't find any info online...you can unlock.

Was it designed by a well-known car designer ?

OK, open to all again. Potentially easy point up for grabs with all the existing info here?

Well-known, yes, but not for his car designs.

Designed by an illustrator who worked regularly for Popular Mechanics ?

I cannot speak to that effect, but it's not what he was known for, no.

Dick Locher, 1962!

Absolutely! Very well done!

This is Popular Mechanics' PM 67, a car from 1962 looking 6 years into the future using GM's Dream Car design language as inspiration.
Dick Locher, known primarily for his newspaper cartoons, penned this for Popular Mechanics.
