1954 Dodge Granada

Dodge unveiled the Granada convertible concept car at the 1954 L.A. Auto Show. While this model was never mass-produced, other manufacturers were intrigued with its lightweight fiberglass body and began experimenting with the material. While much of the car had a streamlined feel to it, the front end had an almost reptilian look. A spoiler dominated the hood while the grille all but disappeared behind the prominent front bumper.
