This is one of the most unusual cars you will ever see.  It represents an early attempt at streamlining and its construction using exposed rivets was the result of an earlier experiment with magnesium alloy body panels that were difficult to weld.  The Atlantic body is aluminum, but the rivets seem to have been carried over for sake of appearence.
