Indeed it did. So modern and futuristic at the time, so modern and futuristic today.

 BMWs have been pigs for a while. Now they look like one, too.

Tracy has a good Tai restaurant and in-n-out burger.

It kind of looks like a streamliner loco going backwards, certainly.

Which reminds me of two things:

1. The Chrysler Airflow had its unusual styling inspired by the discovery that cars of the day were more aerodynamic going backwards.

2. There is a “Mallard” travel trailer I pass parked about once a week that looks enough like the LNER “Mallard ” streamliner that I get a private snicker every time.

I’m a little flummoxed trying to ID the cab in your original post. May be an International.
