1957 BMW 507 Loewy Custom





It’s no big secret that Raymond Loewy gave Albrecht Graf von Goertz his big break when Loewy arranged for his job at the Studebaker design studio. As the story goes, Goertz used that position to establish his own business in the 1950s, through which he met Max Hoffman and eventually came to design the BMW 507. Apparently, though, Loewy thought he could do Goertz one better with his own design for the 507, one that Pichon et Parat of Sens, France, built. That prototype still exists, on display in the photo at the Petersen, after Loewy donated it to the L.A. County Natural History Museum in 1962.

Da li je ovo bila "inspiracija" za Corvette C2,s obzirom da je ona u proizvodnji od '63?

Lage u pravu si,ali samo s prednje starne.A i opel GT glasi kao evropska Corvette-a,a proizvodnja mu je pocela tek '68.
