This is my first attempt at what I call vintage chops. Taking an old photograph and customizing the featured vehicle like the guys might have done back in those days. This time it’s the Fordson ET6. It has been top chopped, cleaned, lowered and some period correct details have been added. Creating this has been a lot of fun, so expect to see more of those vintage chops here at VirtualModels.org.

Would a V8 engine fit into a Citroën HY van? Probably not in real life, but in my phantasy. It would be fun to drive, though. With rear wheel drive, of course. I kept the corrugated metal looks outside as original as possible. Just had to alter the rear fender a little bit to accommodate the more substantial rubber. How about drifting the shed?

Cord 812 Beverly Sedan. A beautiful car… but wait a second! Didn’t that originally have four doors and a shorter nose? Yeah, you’re right about that. Quite a lot has been changed here. Take your time and compare it with the original. Find 10 things I changed and win… a smile. 🙂

The 1933 Pierce-Arrow Silver Arrow is a beautiful car, no doubt about it. However, I’ve always been wondering what a custom version with a straight 8 or even 12 Cylinder engine would have looked like. While extending the front, I also chopped the top for that streamlined look.

Some Lancia cars are elegant on first sight – some are on second or even third. And some even need a little help. This late model Lancia Thema has been lowered over a set of wire wheels with low profile tires. The rear quarter panel has been reworked to give the body a more flowing line. Like it or not – this is going to be one of the extremely rare cars in the future.

For quite a while I wanted to try real flames on a vehicle. What could be a better base than a car from the 1950’s? I customized the Ford Custom RanchWagon including a topchop and massive lowering. Shaved most of the chrome trim and added sidepipes. I am quite satisfied for this being my first try. Hope you like it.

This is what my friend Gerd’s Volkswagen TL could look like. Some quick modifications in photoshop show the potential the car has. Fans of stock TLs don’t need to worry, though – the car is not going to be modified in real life.

Very sleek, long and elegant. This is the look I was aiming for with my Lincoln Continental Mk2. No modern touches on this one – just pure old school customizing and a different shade of paint.
