The 'double bubble'

The term 'double bubble' is not describing an extra large bubble gum...

It refers to an invention made by Zagato - lowering the roofline without narrowing the passengers heads.

	The car shown here was designed in 1956 and is a Lancia Appia Sport prototype. Here the roof and trunk are showing this typical Zagato design-element. Normally only roofs on some Zagato bodied cars had the bend.
The car is a Lancia Flaminia Super Sport - the 'double bubble' can be seen in all beauty.
