I haven't yet photographed this one finished, but I did shoot the changes I made to mine...

I tried to add detail to the Lincoln mill... why I used wire too fat is beyond me now... not to mention the reference I had said the engine was "green", so that is what I painted it, only to find out later a FORD engine green is correct! Dag nabbit!

I detail painted what I could.

Someone posted a photo of the real car's contintal tire cover on the 'net, I shrunk down the pic to scale, and made four copies for the car centercaps...
