I'd only ever known about the half-toned newspaper picture. Here are Life magazine photos, a die-cast scale model and a color picture at some race track.

It's a 1954 Cadillac with a 1948 Lincoln grille, a back bumper off something with extra bumper guards. What appear to be 1950 Studebaker bullets in some other housings. Six Buick portholes on each side.

It's like a 24 Hours of LeMons car 50 years ahead of it's time.
