Maybe not the whole car, but the tail lights would be a different story.
If they lost the extra set of fins, I think the rear would look very respectable. If anyone has a mind to photoshop this deletion on the Request for the gold metal flake paint job, it would be interesting to see.
The quad headlights look awfully tacked on, as noted. I don't see a way around that bulbous look. They look especially bad when unrestored, as the bulges seem to weather at a different rate than the fender. The two-tone job with the accented bulges in the contrasting blue color looks positively cross-eyed!
One thing about these cars and the Studes that they were knocked off from, I do appreciate the smaller dimensions, especially with the kind of power they made. Were there any 6 cylinder models produced, or were the all brawny V8s of Packard or Studebaker heritage?
