Today, its open cars, it is impossible to think of the trading floor. Pontiac took that in 1939, just a little different with this Ghost Car.
Pontiac -you know, of the determined, annoyed ugly Aztek and the plastic Fiero– wanted to make the World Fair of 1939 in New York for something special. Apparently they were quite proud of the mechanics of their Deluxe Six, but all this technical ingenuity was hidden under a rather thirteen-in-a-dozen-body. In collaboration with the chemical company Rohm & Haas was decided to establish a fully functional car made of plexiglas. All of the sheet metal of the Pontiac Deluxe Six was recreated in plexiglas, so that you have an excellent view of the inside. After all these years, the car is slightly discoloured, and here and there cracked, but the effect is no less. In 2011, the car under the hammer, is supposed to be in Plymouth, where he 308,000 quite a lot.
