More 1954 Ford FX-Atmos Concept Car Images

I last wrote about the Ford FX-Atmos concept car here.  In that post I mentioned:

"When I first saw pictures of it, I thought the Atmos was sensational.  This was during the time that American "dream cars" and even production models had details and even larger elements inspired by jet fighter planes."

I still think it was one of the most attractive designs of that genre.  Since it had no motor -- or even the space for one -- it was impractical from that standpoint.  Its canted tail fins and sharp spikes extending forward of bullet-shaped front bumpers (?) made it questionably roadworthy even in 1954.  And its strip-headlights were illegal then.  Not to speak of the restricted turning radius determined by the lack of a large front wheel opening.  All that said, the car's design produced a hearty "Wow!!" factor.

More images of the Atmos have appeared on the Internet since 2015, and some of those are present below for your viewing enjoyment.  All photos were by Ford Motor Company or its publicity agents.

Several recent additions to the Atmos photo collection are in color.  This "establishment shot" shows the setup where those pictures were taken.

A black-and-white (decolorized?) image from the same photo session.  Another is at the top of this post.

Wikipedia (link above) states this is a rare color image of the Atmos.
