notably due to an exceptional paint job and the great contrasting orange wheels. Not sure why this one kept me coming back because it was way out of proportion, with the severe chop and I generally don't like monochrome finish cars. So, I edited a bit, just the see what it looked like.

As found:

50 Ford Coupe   Full Custom   Chopped   Sectioned

Took some chop out of the top and cleaned up the bumper:

50 Ford Coupe   Full Custom   Chopped   Sectioned   PS (3)

Sectioned it slightly, for better proportion:

50 Ford Coupe   Full Custom   Chopped   Sectioned   PS (4)

Any thoughts?

Enjoy!

Personally I would lose the bumper, pan that area and chrome that grille.  I like your roof better Terry.

@jack-dodds: Here's the same car with a front roll pan and a couple of modified grills. Is this what you envisioned, Jack?

Yes sir...the one on the left looks about right to me.  Thanks Terry!

@jack-dodds: Not sure which on is on the left, but I found both to be a bit heavy and did one, last, final, not-going-to-do-anymore edit:

50 Ford Coupe   Full Custom   Chopped   Sectioned   PS9c

 I'm done, I promise!

I like this one the best with the finer grille...but I would also include the parking lights from the one grille.

@jack-dodds: OK, though I promised no more, here's the one you prefer with the parking lights added. Not sure they fit well, without some modifications, but here it is:
