Thanks, Ron. Those are very close to the general shape of Aptera’s. Let’s not forget the short-lived Plymouth Prowler’s wheel pants — a bit more recent;)

The prowler didn’t have pants. It has fenders like a trailer or tractor

I absolutely want an Aptera spec pair of these. Maybe for winter, maybe for ‘off road’ and maybe just for fun. Yes, I know there’s a range penalty, I’m fine with that. Where I live I’ll rarely go over 45.

The car and the pants are beautiful, but massive! I guess it could qualify as Aptera’s Great Grand Daddy.

Even though it will hurt the aerodynamics of the Aptera, I’d like to see the option of those Prowler type fenders on it.
