Tucker Tuesday
I'll try to post some interesting history about Tucker and the autos every Tuesday for a while.
Today’s Post includes the design team at work, an early brochure cover, and the picture that caused many dreams and contravercies.

This Month in Tucker History
1947 - It was May of '47 that the J. Gordon Lippincott & Company design team completed its work on a full-sized clay model. The Lippincott group had been brought in not as automotive engineers, but as product designers and setup next to Alex Tremulis' model. The friendly competition wasn't to change any of the Tremulis fundamentals - wheelbase, basic body, center headlight, but was purely for styling.
May of 1947 also found work beginning on the first Tucker prototype - the "Tin Goose."
