Motorama

Motorama was the name of auto shows in the fifties and sixties, showcasing not only the latest models but also "dream cars" featuring potential future automotive features. Dream cars were the ancestor to concept cars. They were designed to showcase ideas for what the future of the automobile would be like. Most were extreme and never made it into production, but did provide some small ideas that influenced automotive design. One Motorama car in particular is the Lincoln Futura, best known for becoming the original Batmobile.
