My dad's first Cadillac had wheel skirts.



Of course, it was easier to do then because the wheels were tucked further into the body. Modern design brings the wheels out almost even with the fenders, which makes skirt fabrication more difficult. Only Honda has chosen to make it a part of the design with the Insight.
