I got to drive one these in 1965 while working as a new car salesman for a Lincoln/Mercury dealer in a West Virginia. It was a concept car with no steering wheel, but the car was steered by the experimental "wrist twist" steering control of Ford Motor Company's Mercury Park Lane July 15, 1965. This is one of four cars that had been test driven for a while and Ford thought it might hit the market within two or three years from that time, but as we know, it didn’t happen!
