Back in the early sixties, GM produced many of their models in both sedan and hardtop configurations. The sedans had the overhanging roof like the EM 4-doors, while the hardtops had the bubbletop style like the EM 2-doors. Even though I’m a huge fan of the bubbletop look, I’ve always thought the overhang was also really cool. Today’s CPotD is a GM photo I snagged from this month’s issue of the CORSA Communique (the monthly publication of the national Corvair club). It shows a design exercise that was tried out on the 1960 Corvair. If they had gone through with it, imagine how difficult it would be to get one of those wraparound windows today.
