Ok, if we are getting into obscure design terminology questions, here's

for you:  what is the design term for the amount of angle of the side

Useless Hint: it's also a naval architecture term.

PS  Bonus Question:  what do you call a vertical dent in the front
fender
(or, in the Corvair's case, quarter panel) forward of the front wheel?
