1941 Chrysler Thunderbolt Roadster
Two years after GM released the first American concept car, Chrysler responded with this Thunderbolt, “the car of the future.” It was built during the popular Art Deco deco movement before the Jet Age of transportation design. The Thunderbolt was equipped with a host of electric features. These included the electro-hydraulic doors, electric windows and pop-up headlights. The interior was particularly plush with leather upholstery and a bespoke aluminum dashboard.
