The Aurora Safety car was a creation of American catholic
priest Alfredo Juliano. His design was not graced by
the hand of God.
Designed with safety for passengers and pedestrians
the only concern, the Aurora's appearance was an afterthought.
And the car has been hailed by many as the ugliest vehicle
of all time.
Safety features of this hideous creation include; saftey
belts - rare in 1957, foam filled bumpers mounted on
gas shocks, roll over bars built into the perspex dome
roof, and a telescopic steering column. The Aurora's
rounded windscreen was intended to eliminate the need
for windscreen wipers.
