The 58 Chevy was an excellent design study. The Checkers look nothing like it.

GM had some very sleek body designs in 1958, some of the 2 door Buicks, and the "4 door hardtops" (like the one in the video below)of the era.

Wonderful family sedans of the day with that "sporty look" of the day.

btw, here's a '58 Chevy... Doesn't look much like a Checker. ;)
