1938 Phantom Corsair by Brooklin Models
The Phantom Corsair is a prototype automobile built in 1938. It is a six-passenger 2-door sedan that was designed by Rust Heinz of the H. J. Heinz family and Maurice Schwartz of the Bohman & Schwartz coachbuilding company in Pasadena, California. Although sometimes dismissed as a failure because it never entered production, the Corsair is regarded as ahead of its time because of its futuristic features, and styling cues such as faired-in fenders and a low profile.
The Phantom Corsair's steel-and-aluminum body measured just 57 in (140 cm) in height. Rust Heinz planned to put the Phantom Corsair, which cost approximately $24,000 to produce in 1938[7] (equivalent to about $370,000 now).
The Phantom Corsair now resides in The Harrah Collection in Reno, Nevada.
