Astra-Gnome i pressemelding fra Richard Arbib Company, 1956. Bildet tilh\u00f8rer Anders de Lange.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/p>\n

P\u00e5 midten av 50-tallet var amerikansk bildesign inspirert av romfartsteknologi. AMC laget en bubbletop-car som skulle ta pusten fra alle. Hils p\u00e5 Astra-Gnome!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

 <\/h3>\n

Basert p\u00e5 Metropolitan<\/h3>\n

Egentlig skulle prototypen hete Metro-Gnome som p\u00e5 engelsk uttales «metronom». Men Metro-navnet tilh\u00f8rte allerede International Harvester. Derfor valgte AMC i stedet navnet Astra-Gnome. Synd, fordi den fine bubbletop-bilen var nemlig basert p\u00e5 en 1955 Nash Metropolitan – som p\u00e5 folkemunne ble kalt Metro.<\/p>\n

Designet av Richard Arbib<\/h3>\n

Navnet Metro-Gnome kunne ha knyttet prototypen til modellen som allerede var i produksjon. Men hensikten med Astra-Gnome var ikke \u00e5 vise en eventuell ny generasjon av Metropolitan. Den futuriske bilen var laget for \u00e5 representere AMC p\u00e5 New York International Auto Show<\/strong><\/a> i 1956. Det var Richard Arbib’s<\/strong><\/a> designstudio i New York som fikk i oppdrag \u00e5 utvikle en spennende fremtidsstudie for AMC – ikke bare som et design eller tomt skall, men som en fullt kj\u00f8rbar bil. Utformingen av karosseriet ble satt bort til Andrew Mazzara<\/em> (NY). Richard Arbib hadde tidligere jobbet for blant annet GM og Packard – og n\u00e5 AMC. Han brukte 6 m\u00e5neder p\u00e5 \u00e5 omvandle en Nash Metropolitan til Astra-Gnome og rakk s\u00e5 vidt \u00e5 bli ferdig i tide til utstillingen. <\/p>\n

Bilen eksisterer fremdeles<\/h3>\n

Den st\u00e5r p\u00e5 et privat museum i Los Angeles drevet av Metropolitan Pit Stop<\/strong><\/a>. Innehaveren Jimmy Valentine<\/em> tar den av og til ut p\u00e5 veien hvor den naturlig nok vekker stor oppmerksomhet – selv i LA.<\/p>\n

Artige fremtidsvyer<\/h3>\n

Richard Arbib mente at bilene i \u00e5r 2000 ville kunne se ut som Astra-Gnome. I USA kunne man p\u00e5 50-tallet lese i blader som Popular Science<\/em>, om at highway’ene i fremtiden ville f\u00e5 et magnetfelt som gjorde fremtidens biler selvkj\u00f8rende. Overbygde hjulbuer var en del av Nash’ Airflyte-konsept. Ikke bare reduserte det luftmotstanden – det ga ogs\u00e5 ekstra stivhet i karosseriet. Dessuten ga delvis skjulte hjul en visuell effekt av \u00e5 sveve over asfalten. Aluminiumsplatene p\u00e5 sidene kunne lett byttes ut og eventuelt leveres i farger. Glasstaket kan \u00e5pnes og lukkes av en elektrisk motor. Med taket \u00e5pent, kan man praktisk talt vandre oppreist inn i bilen og sette seg ned i de svingbare skinnstolene. Glasskuppelen gir, i f\u00f8lge Arbib, perfekt akustikk for lyden i hifi-radioen. Det mest imponerende med Arbib’s design – sett med dagens \u00f8yne – er at p\u00e5bygget kun ga marginal vekt\u00f8kning i forhold til den opprinnelige Metropolitan-modellen.<\/p>\n

Sm\u00e5bilkonsept<\/h3>\n

Man kan vel trygt si at glasskuppel og tildekkede hjulbuer aldri ble noen slager i bilverdenen. Men siden Astra-Gnome var basert p\u00e5 en liten bil, kunne den fremheve positive sider ved sm\u00e5biler og s\u00e5ledes gi positive signaler til Nash Metropolitan – donorbilen som var bare 3,80 meter lang og 1,45 meter bred. Astra-Gnome hadde \u00f8kt lengden til moderate 4,20 og bredden til hele 1,83 meter uten \u00e5 endre m\u00e5lene p\u00e5 Metropolitans opprinnelige understell. Richard Arbib hadde jobbet bevisst med \u00e5 utnytte plassen optimalt. 6 spesialutformede kofferter som kun eksisterte p\u00e5 tegnebordet, skulle fylle opp hulrom i bilen, blant annet i bredden. Dermed ville den kunne romme like mye som en fullsize amerikansk bil, skj\u00f8nt Astro-Gnome hadde bare 2 seter. <\/p>\n

Inspirerte andre designere<\/h3>\n

Det er ikke vanskelig \u00e5 se hvordan Astra-Gnome har inspirert amerikanske bildesignere – i hvert fall Bill Mitchell<\/em> hos GM. Fronten p\u00e5 Mitchells 1963 Buick Riviera<\/strong><\/a> har store likhetstrekk med Astra-Gnome. Det er ogs\u00e5 lett \u00e5 finne likheter mellom Astro-Gnomes bakre sidepaneler og de innfelte partiene langs bakre sider p\u00e5 1958 Cadillac Fleetwood Sixty Special. Mitchell jobbet i Cadillac p\u00e5 den tiden.<\/p>\n

Bilentusiaster og deres klokker<\/h3>\n

Har du lagt merke til at folk som liker eksklusive biler ofte ogs\u00e5 tiltrekkes av vakre ur? Richard Arbib elsket klokker og har blant annet utformet en spesiell urkasse for Hamilton Electric Watches<\/strong><\/a>. En av nyhetene p\u00e5 Astra-Gnome var en h\u00f8yt senterplassert klokke-enhet av typen Hamilton Celestial Time Zone Clock. Dette var et meget avansert apparat som kunne ha v\u00e6rt installert i et jetfly. Form og plassering bidro til \u00e5 skape en illusjon av fremtid. Kanskje Arbib s\u00e5 for seg n\u00e5tidens midtplasserte infotainment-skjermer?<\/p>\n
