Here is a '49 Cadillac convertible, full custom in a stunning gold color. It's a beautiful car, as found, but the front end looks too heavy......

so I've done some edits, from a couple of different views, addressing the bumper, grill and side trim.

As found:

Smoothed the grill, slimmed the front bumper and sidetrim:

49 Cadillac CV   Full Custom   modified   PS (2)

Pancaked hood, with slimmed front bumper and side trim:

Different view, fatter front bumper:

Slimmer front bumper:

Sectioned body:

I'll apologize for possibly too many views but offer them and solicit your comments.

Enjoy!

Like the great 1949-50 Mercury, this one looks great in nearly any form from full stock to custom designs. It is a solid design that handles stock or mods really well.

Third shot for me! Clean and custom, without losing completely its classic 49 Caddy identity!
