1965 Bugatti 101C roadster

 The original Bugatti car company died in 1952. Virgil Exner, an American designer,  was assigned the task of resurrecting the marque. It looks like he started by using a Bugatti radiator shell from the 1930's. This 101C concept was built by Ghia.

Mr. Graham's three wheeled car

 Apparently Mr. Graham built this car and the photo was taken as he and his bride we leaving on their honeymoon. I was unable to find an additional information.

1954 Chevrolet Corvair Corvette concept

Poor number  of sales after introduction nearly caused Chevrolet to discontinue Corvette production. Only 300 examples of the 1953 model were made. The idea of introducing a fastback version of the car was quickly shelved. Apparently there were five Corvairs made but none of the originals survived. Blue Flame Restorations created a replica of the 1954 Corvair. The story and more photos is here on silodrome.com

1940 A81

Another example of providing war torn Europe with affordable forms of transportation. Introduced in Italy in 1947 it came in different configurations with various engines from 50cc to 175cc. Cabs weren't added until 1964. Read more here.

Rhodesian Security Leopard

Based on 70's VW Beetle. This V-hull design was an early attempt at directing the force of a land mine out and around the passenger compartment. 

Volvo Venus Bilo

 

The Venus Bilo was a concept car from 1933. It had nine specifically designed suitcases for compartments in the vehicle. It had two spare tires one of which served as a rear bumper. It rode on a PV655 chassis. The design led to the Volvo PV36 Carioca production car (pictured below) from 1935-38. The fate of the concept is unknown. After WWII it was sold to a scrap yard where it was turned into a truck.
