(Exner had previously designed the successful Volvo P1800 for Ghia and was also involved in the design of the Karmann-Ghia.) The Caravelle is certainly not an American design. It follows the classic Italian designs of the late 1950s which, interestingly enough, Exner (an American) deeply influenced at the time. Exner worked on the design for the Caravelle during the latter part of 1959
Yes a consultant for Ghia, was also partly resonsible for the Fiat 2300S Coupe
