    ROT>>>They stopped using the Airflow name but they never stopped building Airflow cars. Don't believe me? Compare any 1933 or pre Airflow car design to the 1934 - 37 Airflow compared to any make of car made afterward.>>>

    How about a later Ford slantback. OK maybe there's some resemblance there. 8^) Jack E/NJ

    That green/blue Chrysler Airflow is a 1937, also. The red one is a 1934 DeSoto Airflow.

    To really see the point you have to compare to the 1933 Ford.

    In an era where car structures were made of wood, the airflow had a metal structure.
