Industrial designer Brooks Stevens (1911-1995) might be best remembered today for the clever, low-cost product makeovers he performed for the independent automakers, including the Willys Jeepster and the Studebaker Hawk Grand Turismo. But every now and then, Stevens allowed his talents to run free with more wide-open and speculative projects. One of his wilder creations was the Scimitar—actually, a series of three cars he produced in 1959 for the Olin Mathieson Chemical Corporation, a mining and chemical company.
