ca 1948 Airway sedan, aluminium body, rear-mounted 10hp engine

Further reading suggests this was the aluminum prototype. The 'production' Airway, with a plastic and aluminum body, became a fastback. its rounded shape probably made it easier to pull it from the mold. 

Thread re-titled.

I have it labeled as an "Airway Vicinity."  That's the way it was described in a 1948 write-up in Popular Mechanics.
