'59 Pontiac El Catalina. The new issue of Hemmings Cl***ic Cars has an artical about the discovery and restoration of this factory prototype. Only one or two were built.

FWIW the Y-Job is frequently sitting in the north lobby of the GM Design Center for inspiration...I get to see it every so often while waiting for a meeting ...Awe-inspiring.

Since I was a kid this Harley Earl creation has always been one of my favorites. The guy was a genius who was way ahead of his time and certainly a creative inspiration for me. I had the honor of being behind the wheel of this beauty while helping set up a small parents weekend car show at GMI when our son was a student there in the 90's.
To me that is one of the best variations of the Mustang ever...prototype, production, or modification
