Vive la Deesse. Great shot Mark, of a very charismatic car which was years 
ahead
of its time and remains something VERY special. Put in context that is a
mid-fifties car with a lot of equipment on board that most other companies 
would
take twenty years to provide. As to that incredible aerodynamic body...

I remember the first time I saw one of those crank itself up ti raod height 
on
its pneumatic suspension.
