THE 1957 TAIL-FIN FIASCO

THE 1957 TAIL-FIN FIASCO

Biography

America was gearing up for the sixties. Little Richard screeched his way to the top with ‘Lucille’ and Elvis had 9 hits in a row. Jack Kerouac penned his immortal novel ‘On The Road’, inspiring Americans to seek the promised land, and Harley Earl designed the most beautiful automobile the world would ever see…the year was 1957.

By 1960 the tail-fin was all but extinct.

In 2013 Harley Earl appeared to the boys in a dream. The vision of Harley was as clear as his message:

Create melody and meaning that will allow the human race to move freely and without drag.

Be aerodynasmic.

Be The 1957 Tail-Fin Fiasco.
