Here is a 1942 Cadillac Series 63 sedan - a car that I wouldn't normally consider a candidate for modification but........

the paint color, how the car appeared in the photo background, and the later Cadillac sombrero wheel covers all caught my eye. I've led with a photo of this car that appeared in another series to give you an 'as found' entry.

As found:

My starting point, nosed only:

Cleaned up the front bumper and grill a bit and removed the exterior mirror:

V-butted the windshield and shaved the door handles:

Lowered the cowl, pancaked the hood, modified the beltline trim and paintwork:

Recurved and raised the front bumper, making the grill less massive, tucked the rear bumper and went over the paint and trim with a view toward a smoother package:

I came away really liking this car.

Do you find any of the edits more pleasing than the 'less found' version?

Enjoy, and Merry Christmas!
