About nine thousand were produced. Then a film crew needed something that could plausibly be mistaken for a spacecraft by a 1955 farmer, and the brushed stainless steel body and gullwing doors did the rest. It is now one of the most recognisable cars ever made, on the strength of about two hours of screen time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe one Metal Earth subject where the bare steel finish is not a compromise but the correct colour, because the real car was unpainted stainless. Laser-cut sheets, tab-and-slot assembly, no glue or paint. The doors, the louvred rear deck and the wheels are where the time goes.
