I didn't mean this so much to be a "design" as a "concept" intended to express the idea of combining "two parts".
It is a format to learn by, explore and maybe a leaping point. I have much prettier cars, this is just a test mule.
One test is the rear, and to see if what I did works and why. If it works (wing aside), can it, should it be done to other cars with benefit?
Examples below of applying this principal to other cars. The goal is not to make them prettier, but to aid in lowering drag. I know they have "stuff" back there (like an engine), just taking "form" here.
Is this form, serving a function?
