I don't think they sold well. Note the wheel well openings. Don't know which one is weirder the front or the rears. 

I'd say they sold exactly one. 

After all, it was a 1-off design study , never meant to be in production at all.

Built on a Ferrari 512 race car chassis with it's 500+HP  flat 12 engine, it's supposed to be good for 220 mph.  That would be a scary ride. :blink:

Not so weird, just obscure:  the Leach car.  Later models were powered by a Harry Miller-designed 6-cylinder SOHC engine.  Hemming's Classic Cars mentioned it this month, with a photo of a Leach and its owner, early cowboy star Tom Mix.

The Leach was built in Los Angeles and very popular among Hollywood stars, since it was rare and expensive. Here's Gloria Swanson posing with her Leach close-coupled coupe (maybe on Sunset Blvd.? :P)  Check out the details like the scallops around the side and rear windows and the chrome luggage racks.

The first one looks like it might even have a 4x4 chassis under it. The second one shows all the signs of willful abuse.   

Yea the offroad Vic is cool.The second one looks like it escaped from a junk yard.I found this 4x4 Crown Vic too.Now that is cool.Wonder if it's used for south of the border patrol.Lol.I have a black,very clean,low miles 09 Crown Vic interceptor.Its Gotta be the fastest car I've ever driven.Especially after I threw a set of Flowmasters on it.The Ford Crown Vic has got to be one of the best cars ever built.Roomy,comfortable,and very fast.But some of them don't last.??
