Ugly or odd vehicle, Brooks Stevens was commisioned to design this car in 1955.

Notice the headlights (airplane lights?) are bigger than the model's head by a lot

It looks like a cross between Exner's Mercer Cobra http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2011/12/mercer-cobra-may-be-ugly-enough-to.html and the late 50's vettes.
