    The nose and front fenders look similar to a Lotus 7 but the rear is different. Maybe a custom based on the 7?

    Brooks Stevens sports car rendering. I think it was for Studebaker.

  6. Wryhawk is correct. This car is an Excaliber J designed in 1951, I believe, and definately by Brooks Stevens. I guess that it may be considered the forerunner to the line of Excalibers which emulated a 1930 Mercedes Benz K.
