A thought--is the crop too tight? Thanks.

[Osiris]

Fills the frame perfectly. The black and white is a good touch on this too. Btw i think it just needs a little buffing to get that out ;).

I wouldn't mind the crop having a little more space myself but it's not bad as it is :) What method did you use for the BW conversion? I think I can see a ding in your front right quarter... ;)

[Statement]

Hehe, I just used photoshop and did Adjustments > Desaturate. Then I think I upped the contrast a little bit hoping that it wouldn't look too flat. Thanks for the feedback!

Good in action shot? Bad in action shot? Thanks to those who have given feedback, and the more feedback the better!

What kind of car is this? It has a lot of characteristics of a 1946 Plymouth, but it has some that are very different too.

[Statement]

Well, the plant that it is adjacent to is called the "Packard Plant" here in the car-manufacturing Detroit, and I had never heard of that but my friend said it is probably a "Packard." Not sure if that's right though.

[Statement]

Ah, it has been confirmed.

I'm pretty certain that ain't a Packard. In that era (1940's) Packards had tall central grilles, and I haven't seen any Packard with that kind of fender trim.

I'm stumped.

[Statement]

Why wouldn't it be a packard? It's in the friggin packard plant!

Nice!

I think my grandfather owned a Packard back in the late 40's!
