Government Issue Posted July 27, 2014 Share #308 Posted July 27, 2014 Sweet ride! A good majority of post war car design was influenced by WWII aviation. The gentleman who first designed automobile tail fins, Harley Earl, was inspired by the P38 lightening! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sabrejet Posted July 27, 2014 Author Share #309 Posted July 27, 2014 Thanks...that's a very evocative print which illustrates the source of inspiration perfectly. I've always thought that the futuristic prototype Lightning in its natural metal finish must have looked like the Millennium Falcon to 1930s eyes! Still looks good today!
