I suggest looking up the Czech automaker Tatra. Under chief engineer Hans Ledwinka, they licensed the the work of Paul Jaray, and produced a series of streamlined, rear-engined, air-cooled sedans that ran from 1934 T-77 to 1973, the last year of the T-603, under the Soviets. These cars were so unusually styled and futuristic for the time that they used a 1937 T87 on Battlestar Galactica.
