- Model of a 1940 Ford XP Rear Engine Automobile - This photograph shows a model of a Ford concept car that never made it to production. The model suggests that the car would have used unit-body construction similar to the Lincoln Zephyr. The XP's proposed rear-engine layout was unusual for the time, as was the transverse engine oriented with its crankshaft parallel to the rear axle.
