    Best looking minivan ever. It looks like it's going 80 mph even when parked

    The music in this video is awesome. I totally disagree with those who said the volume was too high. I loved it.

    I find it interesting that Ford would envision this in the early sixties, yet a decade and a half later they would laugh Lee Iaccoca out of a board meeting for pitching his minivan design.

    The thing with conceptual and practical application is that they will pick features out of conception models and feature them in production models later on after the idea is shut down.

    Okay, I need to know name and artist of the background music. Interesting channel! Especially the obscure cars / prototypes / subjects. Subscribed.

    It might have inspired the early 60s Econoline van/pickups.

    Another example that Ford could've been first to offer Americans a "garage-able" van (Minivan)... but dropped the ball. So-much for Ford having "better ideas"...!😉

    Even by today's standards it looks better and more futuristic than the Cybertruck.

    Not a one of todays cars are inspired by this van. Today if you have any talent designing cars you are shot and buried behind the companies building.

    Correct. Just the model, and they didn't make an interior. Thank you for watching!
