Confused Dog Fear of Cars

Ok... I could use some advice, assistance, suggestions....

When Reggie was little he wasn't afraid of anything. We could take him anywhere in the car and he would sleep most of the time. I take him to work with me 1 or 2 times a week. About 3 weeks ago, we got in the car after work and it was hot so I put the electric windows down and Reggie started shaking.

Ever since then, he's nervous almost every time we get in the car to go somewhere, but then he calms down. When I take him to work, same thing... nervous at first but then he calms down. When I leave work, he starts shaking before we even leave the office and then he shakes and sits up and lays down all the way home.

HELP! What can I do? I don't want to quit taking him places. We bought him a doggy car seat which at least keeps him from moving around the car and he seems to like the seat because he enjoys looking out of the windows sometimes.
