Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Wild concept by Virgil Exner, Jr. Single forward driving position with two rear facing seats behind. Single rear fin right off a 59 Plymouth. Doesnt run. Never did. But its still futuristic, even forty years later. Its also bizarre and so characteristic of the Sixties it almost hurts.

Market commentary

There are plenty of other ways to spend $88K on a car, but none of them have the shock value of Selene II. It is just spectacular.
