Windshield-Less Roadsters

The 1960 Plymouth Xnr Concept Car has an Unusual Profile

Restored to its retro roots, the 1960 Plymouth XNR Concept Car is a pint-sized roadster with an atypical design. It's a little wacky, a little weird, but sure to turn heads as it roars down the race track.

This one-of-a-kind convertible has the stylings of a classic Corvette with idiosyncratic details that make this one eye-catching design. The asymmetrical, bumper and wing-like headlights are some of the unusual finishes found on this vehicle. The passenger seat can be closed off with a hidden hatched roof, transforming the car into a pod-like structure.

Although the 1960 Plymouth XNR Concept Car likely wouldn't pass any safety tests in today's era, the eccentric design is one that can be appreciated by auto aficionados alike. And as the saying goes, "they just don't make them like they used to."
