Glance along a line of parked cars at a shopping mall, and you may struggle to tell one from the next. Some would argue that today’s auto industry is far too homogenous, but that was certainly not the case back in the 1950s when some gloriously wild show cars arrived. Take the 1959 Scimitar EX All-Purpose Sedan as one example. It took inspiration for its styling from a curved sword and came from a coachbuilder better known for its Porsche 356 bodies.
