That 408 is actually a nice looking car. Wikipedia says it was a concept car 1964 aluminum body, removable hardtop and electronic fuel injection. Don’t know anything about it. It could have been pretty hot for its day. Some of the others are weird, but we had the Pontiac Aztek, almost everything AMC made, and a few other slightly off cars and trucks.

The ZiL 4906 or 49061 is amphibious.

My dad had a 408 sedan back to earlier 1980s, wife’s grand daddy kept an 2141 (liftback version of 2142 pictured at link) from late 1980s into earlier 2000s.

I don’t know if you are a gamer, but the Fallout games have one car I wish would have been made in real life. the “Chryslus Corvega”. It looks like a 50’s concept car gone horribly, horribly wrong.

I know beauty is in the eye of the beer holder and all, but this thing is just wrong to the point of being awesome. It looks like a 55 Chevy and an ElCamino/Ranchero had sex. Then again I actually like the Edsel. No, Seriously ;)
