    I don't get paid to work on the Caddy so, it gets little attention these days. I plan to be at LARS as usual.

    That makes it sectioned, the easy and smart way!
    Get's rid of the rust out down there at the same time too, if it's not too bad.:cool:

    Right, It's sectioned 2.5" right off the bottom. The floor was toast so, this was the easiest way to do it.

    From the factory, that body style is hard to improve on. You have improved it by a long shot. Great work. Keep us posted.

    Not yet. Next up, we have to narrow the rear axle so the other side looks like the one in the picture :D

    Then we're going to be working on making rolled edges on the fenders.

    That thing is rad! I usually don't spring for sectioned cars, but this is just tasteful.

    I might've argued with changing the silhouette of any '40-----til I saw this one.
