Why is the car named Excalibur?
A. In the US in the 50’s and 60’s it was fashionable for car manufacturers to name cars after swords and the most famous of all swords was Excalibur. The Excalibur name in the 1950’s was already linked to Brooks Stevens from his racing days as he had earlier designed, built and raced victoriously, a team of Excalibur sports cars.
