I also remember a variant of the F-100 Super Sabre that had the air intake on the dorsal side, behind the cockpit.

My late friends '46 Cessna 140

We had a lot of fun with this plane.

Also very spring like here today, a real pick me up kind of day.

If you look close they are diff cars, bodies aren't the same. Note vents on roof sides, none on the rusty car
The buried one is a "Targa", roof is removable
