I do not think I have seen this picture before. I tried searching for it here but came up with nothing.

Is This a Mock-up for the Lark?

The Right Rear Fender corner and rear Panel looks pretty much like the '59 ended up.
However that Left Rear Fender lower and rear Panel corner is the same design that ironically ended up on the future Cars -'62 to '66!
Lots of interesting features; the '57 Sedan like Tail Lights, the '56 Wheel Covers and the '53-early '55 Sedan Windshield.
I too think the '58 Starlight Hardtop styling concept Car has an interesting '59 -'61 Hawk Fin design.StudeRich

If you blow it up to 400%, the left trunk/tail area doesn't look real. Air-brushed, cut-and-paste? The vertical trunk panel just doesn't join or blend with the right side which we know is real.
EDIT: Yes, the more I look at it enlarged, the more I see drawn in. The C-pillar and the rear line of the rear door are pencilled-in.Last edited by kurtruk; 05-22-2013, 07:51 PM.KURTRUK

Interesting. Until I enlarged the picture, I didn't realise that this was one of the mock-ups with each side different. The right rear treatment is much like the production 59 Lark."In the heart of Arkansas."
