1936 Peugeot 402 Andreau
 
A 'piece' of this car appeared in the book 'DREAM CARS' in the section on Peugeot.I GOOGLED Peugeot,found a photo which identified the model,1936 402 Andreau,then re-GOOGLED for this particular car.
There are many shots of the car and it's definitely worth a look.

Beautiful :)
It could easily have worn a Bugatti badge !

Redone with today's engineering, it could even be made a lot sleeker, lower, lighter.

But the tailfin has to go ;)

One of the internet articles for the car reported that it had remarkable crosswind stability,and the rear fin was responsible for it.
All of Kamm's K-cars had stability issues and you'll see at least one of them sporting a similar rear fin ( actually dual fins ) as on the Andreau.
By 1978 Dr. Morrelli had licked the stability issue,using low rounded front fenders and fins placed low behind the rear wheels.
