Interesting Aerodynamic Cars (Mike Vetter's ETV, also Avion)

That Kenworth reminds of the streamliner steam locomotives from the 30's

Else the 1936 GM Streamliners that preceded the Futureliners.

Somewhat interesting is the Morgan Midsummer

The classic Morgan Plus 6 gets ecomodded: Partial grille block, front diverter, side skirts, long tail with box cavity truncation, windshields no bigger than you rear view mirrors, & etc.

Interesting wooden external duct/door pulls. Taller tires on lighter wheels.

Casey the Car Guy built a whole car to get Aerocivic level fuel mileage:

FIRST MPG Test- Diesel OMEGA CAR - Video 2 of 3

But to be fair he could probably do much better -- if he didn't start from a cold start in the garage.
