I photographed the Astro 1 in Six Flags Over St. Louis in 1974. This was the Chevy Car Show display. Current model cars and trucks were in the background.

Yes great looking car, a pity they didn't progress with it. Wow, this is a special treat today to see these photos. This made me look up the model on the Rally and read the comments I wrote about this car 20 years ago: -------------------------------- Dave's comments: Like the MPC Astro Vette, this GM concept from the same year has excellent lines and a fluid racing look. If you look carefully at the box art, the building has "GM 2000" to the left. And here we are today with nothing that sexy to drive.
