"super-sleek sharks surfacing from the midcentury deep" is just perfect, John.
I had an uncle who drove one: not just like travelling in a high-speed futuristic space-whale, but also one of very few vehicles as a child in which I wasn't violently car sick :-)
I still adore them: the future rarely looked so good. I always felt slightly disappointed not to step out of it and slip on my personal jetpack.
