Virgil Exner ?

Tom_I · « **Reply #45 on:** August 14, 2015, 04:33:14 AM »

No, not Exner.

Djetset · « **Reply #46 on:** August 14, 2015, 06:33:04 AM »

I guess there's no way that Harley Earl would be styling VWs?!

Tom_I · « **Reply #47 on:** August 14, 2015, 07:42:31 AM »

Certainly not this one.

Wendax · « **Reply #48 on:** August 14, 2015, 07:47:37 AM »

Was it done by a well-known American designer, like the ones mentioned before?

Tom_I · « **Reply #49 on:** August 14, 2015, 08:01:04 AM »

Not as well-known as the stylists already mentioned, but not obscure either (at least not by Autopuzzles standards). It's a name that has appeared here before.
