Here's your original.
Cool idea for the chop, but you haven't really changed a lot... Dunno what you tried on the bonnet, but if you wanted a paint job of some sort there, try to change the blending settings of that layer.
Anyways, funny story about this car. It's actually from my city, and I see it every now and then. At the moment it has a roof rack with an old crate and a bag of some sort. It's a VW Karmann Ghia 1600 iirc. I also have the magazine wherein it was featured.
