Rather like Oldsmobile, this one seems to have got lost!  ;)

Yes, you're right . . . I remember this car when it was on the show circuit and in the car magazines in 1963, and then that was pretty much the last anyone saw of it. I wonder why? The 1964 F-85 was extensively redone - maybe enough so that GM felt that this 1963-based car  was no longer relevant?
