Virgil Exner and The Forward Look

Born at the start of the automotive age, Virgil Exner had almost no formal training, but he was a talented artist who was fascinated by cars. Almost by accident, he became a giant of midcentury American car design with his work at Studebaker and Chrysler, helping to save both companies from cautious but boring styling. This is the story of Exner's remarkable career and his greatest legacy: "The Forward Look".SUPPORT THE POD:https://www.buymeacoffee.com/hpheritageSUPPORT OUR SPONSORS:http://modelcitizendiecast.comhttps://drivetowardacure.orgFIND US ON THE WEB:https://www.horsepowerheritage.comInstagram: @horsepowerheritageMusic Credits"Violin Sonata, Opus 26" by Jan Brandts BuysPerformed by Steve Joneshttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/"Rhapsody In Blue" by George GershwinPerformed by Paul Whiteman and his OrchestraPublic Domainhttp://creativecommons.org/publicdomain/mark/1.0/Fats Waller and His Orchestra live at The Yacht Club (1938)Public Domainhttp://creativecommons.org/publicdomain/mark/1.0/"Background #3 103 "by Lilo SoundFree download: https://filmmusic.io/song/7555-background-3-103License (CC BY 4.0): https://filmmusic.io/standard-licenseArtist website: https://electronicmoods.com/"Meliorism" by Lilo SoundFree download: https://filmmusic.io/song/7316-meliorismLicense (CC BY 4.0): https://filmmusic.io/standard-licenseArtist website: https://electronicmoods.com/"Crinoline Dreams" by Kevin  MacLeodThe following music was used for this media project:Music: Crinoline Dreams by Kevin MacLeodFree download: https://filmmusic.io/song/3560-crinoline-dreamsLicense (CC BY 4.0): https://filmmusic.io/standard-licenseArtist website: https://incompetech.com"Rock Music" by Goff RichardsPublic Domainhttp://creativecommons.org/publicdomain/mark/1.0/"Short Meeting In 5 - 4 Time" by Horst HoffmannFree download: https://filmmusic.io/song/8977-short-meeting-in-5-4-timeLicense (CC BY 4.0): https://filmmusic.io/standard-licenseArtist website: https://www.mm-studio.eu"Silent Dreams" by Frank SchroeterFree download: https://filmmusic.io/song/7846-silent-dreamsLicense (CC BY 4.0): https://filmmusic.io/standard-licenseArtist on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/frank.schroeter.52"Perls" by MusicParadiseFree download: https://filmmusic.io/song/5066-perlsLicense (CC BY 4.0): https://filmmusic.io/standard-licenseArtist website: http://www.music-paradise.de"Not on the Bus" Performed by the U.S. Army BluesPublic Domain"George Street Shuffle" by Kevin MacLeodFree download: https://filmmusic.io/song/3800-george-street-shuffleLicense (CC BY 4.0): https://filmmusic.io/standard-licenseArtist website: https://incompetech.com"Bossa of Margie" by MusicLFilesFree download: https://filmmusic.io/song/6167-bossa-of-margieLicense (CC BY 4.0): https://filmmusic.io/standard-licenseArtist website: https://cemmusicproject.wixsite.com/musiclibraryfilesChrysler Corporation's "Forward Look" for 1957  Public Domainhttp://creativecommons.org/publicdomain/mark/1.0/Support the showHELP us grow the audience!
