I offer for you consideration, a dressmaker's car:


Just A Car Guy: Neil 'Bunny' Rodger (1911-1997) son of a Scottish telephony tycoon, and owner of a couture house he opened in 1937 with clientele including Vivian Leigh and Marlene Dietrich
Quote:
He opened his fashion house in 1937. The personality of his creations quickly earned him the loyalty of a renowned clientele, the Lygon sisters, Princess Marina, and Vivien Leigh, who then lived with Laurence Olivier and was about to shoot Gone With the Wind. [1954]
I remember an editorialist in C&D or R&T commenting on how 1950s cars with their rows of teeth (looking at you, 1953 DeSoto) looked like they lurk in the garage at nigh waiting to eat something.
