I don't know american copyright law, but in Sweden we have something called "verkshöjd". Meaning a work has to meet a minimal standard of creativity/originality to be considered copyrightable. I sincerely doubt this photo would meet those requirements. On the other hand, the design based on the photo would. As would the design of the car itself.

While the photo might not meet the bar for "verkshöjd"/originality, the photo would still be under copyright in Sweden. For photos that are not original enough, the copyright term is 50 years, while photos that are have a term of photographers lifespan+70 years.

  Clearly, I don't know swedish copyright law either. "Not a lawyer" is the default on the internet, right?
