The Airflow has a bustleback-type trunk, fender skirts, artillery-type wheels, a wonderful trunk presentation, clean engine bay, whitewall tires plus an interior in original-type materials that may be as luxurious and comfortable as select living rooms.

A 1990 AACA National First is proudly displayed on the grille.
