    Would you believe "Personalized appearance"?

    "Back in the day" ('50s & '60s) we might have called this a mild custom, since it is mostly done with lowering, paint and accessories.

    Yes, the Caddy is a mild custom, a cruiser, and the Ford is a full custom, since it's chopped and otherwise modified. The old rules stated that a full custom had to be chopped and/or sectioned. The basic profile had to be changed.
