Streamlined Dreams: Ten Amazing Unbuilt Automobile Designs, 1916-1939 by Jared A Zichek.  Looks like essential reading for our car buffs, ten spectacular interwar projects that never saw the light day.  Same guy who did Secret Aerospace Projects of the U.S. Navy.

He's hinted at a second volume on Secret Projects.

I don't think it's nice, you laughin'. You see, my mule don't like people laughin'. He gets the crazy idea you're laughin' at him. Now if you apologize, like I know you're going to, I might convince him that you really didn't mean it.

Yep, it's pretty good, I have the ebook version, his Miller-Oldfield drawing is a little off, the
version of the drawing he had didn't include the front and rear views, so his rendering is
more slab-sided.



You can buy the e-book version directly from Jared for $8.99.
