Swedish Dream Car: A Car Named “Future”, Designed by Sigvard Berggren in 1952

Swedish carrot juice maker Sigvard Berggren (1923–2009) built his own Future. That’s the name of his dream car which looks like a wingless plane. He installed a Ford V8 engine in a ’38 Dodge chassis and plans to add a 200-hp mill in the rear, to give the Future a 140-mph-plus speed. That’s a real fast-flying Swede.
FUTURE was built in spare time, looks strikingly like a plane.
FISH EYES are headlights and the huge gills are the air inlets.

It is not clear if this was a serious commercial project or just a hobby car, but Sigvard also establish a company that later became Brämhults Juice and in 1962 Borås Zoo.
