It has wings...

It has wings,

But, will it fly?

I'm submitting 3 seperate vehicles, since they are of the same lineage, naming one is ALMOST naming each; how ever, the challenge is to get their years, too...

Bonus Points for the manufacturer's Prototype number for each; Triple points for designers to "build" these, which is somewhat why I found them.

Greg got me to thinking about what hasn't been done: Auto manufacturer's "discarded " prototypes, with few exceptions, like that of the 1955 Lincoln Futura, aka the 1966 Batmobile (modded, of course), which means we have one model of a true prototype.

I can just imagine a 1950 GMC Futureliner...
