Here's my photoshop quickie...

 

!lvd thw

 

I like the brown rendering. Awesome car!

 

That looks damn cool, but the polished hood is going to smoke your retenas if you drive it when the sun is out. Maybe instead make the scallop design in the polished with the burgundy on top of the hood.

 

wow.
its lookin pretty rad...
whats the text read on the lil plate?

 

Hint: it's French. The other side says "RECHERCHE".

 

A couple more little tweaks.

 

Don't you wish it was that easy. Very nice car..so is it gonna have a little windshield?

 

Another little adjustment.

 

ok so i wasnt top of my cl***

 

Another...

 

Looks like it's at an ol' Airstrip!!

 

The curve at the bottom of the cowl really creates a nice shape. Is it going to have a cream pinstripe between the burgundy and the bare metal?

 

Awesome!!

 

just something simple like the day

 

Yep.

 

Looking great. Does the camber on the front axle need a little tweaking?

 

I think it may.

 

Looks good I dig it.....

 

still looks like a huge *****.. like you.

 

Hey, I have to do something to get you interested.

 

Thought I'd throw one in,by the way great ideas so far.

 

me thinks put the numbers on the ends of the gas tank and angled across it viewed from the rear...... 6+6+6 ...
big numbers were expensive to do ... keep the word lettering small so that only readable form up close ..

and use old horse collars for pads around the seat area.. cut in half one on each side

oh and use house paint for the major color ... as you know any other paint ... ...may blah frickin blah

oh it looks good

all bare metal must be engine turned get the peg board and the wood dowel and get er done

that scallop job on number 6 has it right on the reveal line it just needs it carried all the way to th middle of the door

vertical or horizontal bars in the grill?

you must be good at br*** polishing after all them utter knobs

 

very interested...

 

Holy horse****! that thing looks great! I second the comments about the curve at the cowl and the maroon color. Fantastic!

 

Vertical. We should have pics this week.

 

The car has a wonderful profile. Keep up the good work...and I want to see the dash pieces in place too.
