  No. It's a futuristic design by Aurora from 1956, as the image shows. The whole story is in the blog. Thanks for commenting! https://budgetpixel.com/blog/the-history-of-the-automobile-3

  The Oldsmobile would have fit seamlessly into the Fallout game setting. Hard to believe this was actually real.

• @charlypalermo · Jul 10, 2026

  That's true. And also, at least for me, I find it hard to believe that it wasn't released.
