Today we complain loudly that cars pretty much look all the same. Sure, there are blips on the radar screen, but most of the stuff people use as general transportation has morphed into the same jellybean shaped blob. The march toward that unfortunate end apparently began in the 1930’s when engineers started to think about aerodynamics as they related to cars. It’s kind of funny to see how rudimentary their thinking was. This video has lots of unintentional comedy that we can chuckle at now living in the age of aero.
Dig those “aerodynamic” fenders and running boards!
