The chop on your coupe reminds me of something - oh yeah, the chop on my coupe! Good work, and good to have the family involved.

Favorite Pic Ever! Three HAMBer's Model 40's. Scott Gillen's un-chopped 33 in the forground, DROD's 33 chassis, and my coupe in the back gettin' her haircut. Love It!

I'm out cleaning the garage today, and it kinda looks like it threw up on itself, lol.
Put all the stuff together that I've been saving for my coupe over the last several years.

16x4 and Merc or pick-up 16x5 Early Ford Wheels, Original 50 Pontiac Tail Lights, F-1 Shock Mounts (soon to be Head Light Mounts), My favorite Flathead intake in the whole wide world-Edelbrock Slingshot (and yes it's a re-pop, but financially I just can't affort an original. I'm gonna polish then "distress" it to look a little "older" though) and some 97's.

GasserFreak: What are the dimensions on the chop? Looks like more than 5" in the front.

Trying to decide how much to chop my 34 5w. A 5" chop in the front will make the windshield about 7.5" tall. I was thinking 5" in the front and 4" in the back to give it a moderate raked look.

Not exactly sure on the dimensions. Somewhere around 5" at the very back to maybe 6"ish in the front? Rudy kinda moves them until they look "right".

I should point out that 5W's chop way different than 3W's. On a three window the roof moves alot further, so the windshield gets laid back harder, therefor a "taller" windshield.

Thanks Everyone, Words can't describe how excited I am right now. I just got the car home awhile ago. After I got it into the garage I went out for a cig, and sat in it making vroom-vroom noises until my wife came out and caught me.
