1961 Volvo 544 First Volvo I ever rode in was one of these, it had been owned by the guy who played Big Bird on Sesame Street. Carroll Spinney also played Oscar the Grouch, died at 85 at the end of 2019.

I had a white 1962 and I put 105,000 great miles on it. It had pickup in first and second gear but third could not get it safely on an interstate. Once you got it in 4th gear is was smooth sailing. It needed a longer second gear so it could have made it to 55 mph instead of just 40. 3rd gear was good for 55. 4th gear was good for 80. It rode very rough but was built like a tank. I had 2 more Volvos after this one, but they were no where near the 62 in reliability.

Mohs Ostentatienne Opera, ONE OF THE UGLIEST CARS EVER BUILT, was designed for safety by seaplane manufacturer Bruce Mohs. Built on IH chassis between 1967 and 1979.

1952 Studebaker Manta Ray concept prototype, ugly, but not in the class of the Mohs.
Was up for auction in Monterey in 2019, I didn't hear the result.

Still weird, but not ugly, Runabout made with top of a Corvette.

I did not have all the info initially. This car was conceived and produced by Italian/Argentinian auto fabriquer Horacio Pagani to celebrate his 60th birthday. It has his initials HP on it. He calls it a Zonda HP Barchetta. He plans to make 3 copies of the topless open air car and his price to sell each is $23,650,000 . It employs a 12 cylinder Mercedes Benz engine. It is doubtful any of the cars will be driven much outside since there is no provision for a soft or hard top and the windshield is cropped low.
