    For me its the Cadilac Sedanette and Lincoln Zephyers. Beautiful lines and classy. Cars used to be classy.

    Perfect Proportions are in the eye of the beer holder.

    I think your car, and all of these cars have really nice proportions...they follow the recipe...29 roadster, 32 frame, big n littles, leaned back glass and a stretched hood...can't go wrong. It's been right for a long time :D

    the truck in your avatar. I like the look of the sectioned hood , gives good proportions to the chop. mine is a hack job but the lines are good

    Malcom (orrrrr, uhh, Nick), your little roadster has fantastic proportion, if it was mine I'd have shown it in this thread too! You know another 29/32 roadster that was incredibly proportional(?)... Eric Giesert's project roadster that ran in Street Rodder. Before the wheels and some of the final details, that car, when it was in the raw, looked so good!

    Straight from Webster's dictionary...proportion. 1: to adjust (a part or thing) in size relative to other parts or things. 2: to make the parts harmonious.
