1948 Cadillac Eldorado

This is the Foose car that I modified to what I like.  Rear fins have been smoothed down and the original taillights filled. Cut a slit along the trunk line for the taillight.  Stripped the chrome off the original bumpers to use as rolled pans.  Dual quad headlights up front with a grille from the parts box.  I used the kit wheel/tires because the red stripe goes well with the red in the interior and engine.

That's a pretty darned ambitious re-do and is so well integrated that it almost slips by unnoticed. And to my eyes it's quite an improvement over the kit version. Nice job! I especially like the stavked headlights and the re-profiled rear end treatment. Thanks for sharing it with us. I'm sure it will inspire others to try their hand.
