in that someone else messed with it first, I did a couple of edits just to see what is.

As found:

49 Cadillac Fastback Sedan   Modified   PS

With some dechroming:

49 Cadillac Fastback Sedan   Modified   PS (2)

And a final attempt to make it look a bit meaner:

49 Cadillac Fastback Sedan   Modified   PS (3)

Not sure what the owner has done in the power department, but the slightly oversized exhausts and what appears to be a tach on the left side of the steering column imply that it's been breathed on a bit. If he stayed with Cadillac power, I'd bet on a 365ci. engine as the smallest with possibly a 472ci. or 500ci. engine upgrade. 

Anyway, I've never seen one look nastier, after a bit of editing.

Enjoy!

This is one car that I just can't bear to see customized or changed in any way, because IMHO it's an iconic design.
