=== Design === | |||
The Shark is fashioned as a four-door sedan with an apparently 1930/1940s body design, distinguishable by its slender frontal radiator grille that stretches over to the boot lid of the car. With <code>GRAHAM</code> as its internal name, the car's name is implied to be inspired by [[:wp:Graham-Paige|Graham-Paige]]'s 1938-1940 [http://images.google.com/images?hl=en&um=1&q=Graham+sharknose&sa=N&start=0&ndsp=18 "Sharknose" car], which sported a shark-like front facade design. The actual design of the Shark, however, differs significantly in various respects. | |||
