I present you with one of the best things to ever come from the US auto industry ever. The Cord 810.

Also, it was made even more awesome because of the hidden headlights.

Speaking of that, if you were to do hidden headlights like the Cord did it, could you get around pedestrian safety laws? Or is it the weight that creates the problem?

Hell yeah, I love this car... It's awesome and I wouldnt have found out about it if not for Hot Wheels, which validates my claim that small scale diecast is car culture at its finest.

If anyone has not been to the Auburn, Cord, Duesenberg museum in Auburn Indiana. Put it on the bucket list. Oh, and give yourself plenty of time to peruse the place.

I have been there twice and would go again.

Agreed. Of course, I love the 812 just a little more because who doesn't love positive manifold pressure?

I used to go every year for the museum and parade. Definitely a must-see.

The same could be done, but in a modern vehicle they'd be integrated in the front valance instead of the fenders I think.
