Volvo Philip (1950), and the PV 179 (1952). Later he designed the changes that brought about the 1800ES from the 1800 coupe body.
I expect there will be a Volvo press release which covers this,
FYI https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jan_Wilsgaard |
It's a real loss to the Automotive design history
He's the one man who did all the good ones
