Judging by the text, it is definitely older than 1960, since they refer to that year as the future. The model seems to have come out in 1957.

    It's a hardtop convertible. No B-pillar.

    I think it's just a stylized drawing.

    Looking at a 1960 Plymouth brochure which includes a list of the "new and exciting features" coming for the 60's,theybdont even list a convertible, let alone hard top convertible.

    This drawing doesn't show the cutout/scallop on the front corner of the early 60's Plymouth.

    Fury is the only convertible I can think of off-hand from that era, and it was soft top. Add that Plymouth went unit body in the late 50's, a hard top convertible would be extra challenging, I think.

    Still, there's lots I don't know about Plymouth at that time, so I'm not sure what they actually made.

    Nothing say 'tomorrow' like a retro design car in a car dump!
