    I have seen a lot of chops, but yours by far is on the top of the list in terms of quality.

    I am one to do the work myself as I don't trust others, but if I needed someone to chop my car I wouldn't hesitate to use your skills.

    Talent, pure talent, and the fact that it is being done in your driveway makes it all the better......can't wait to see the finished job.....sure makes me want to go get bizzy in the shop on my stuff..
     
  20. Oh No, thank you sir.

    Would you mind detailing the skirts also, please?

    Thats next on my list right after the rockers....

    Thanx again!!:)

    I took her out on the street this morning to get a better look before finish welding and i'm glad i did, i saw 1 thing that needs fix and it's not a problem but i'm glad i saw it !! Driver's side 1/4 window above the drip rail it rolls in a little bit and it needs attention!!

    that chop is perfection,,,NEVER seen better proportions,,(jesus valencia chevy is perfect as well, but not better),,,,,,you get an A+++, the plusses are for the fact that you are new at this, put in the extra effort to make sure it's right, and the fact you did it in your driveway,,,VERY VERY IMPRESSED, , , ,

    Holy shit!!! Thanx a lot man!!!:) The Valencia '49 is one of my all time custom, that's a huge compliment!!!

    Omar posted earlier that this chop was better than his, I feel bad he feels this way but that's just the way it goes. The odds are most likely my next car will be better than Munster's, I hate to say it but it's just the way it goes when you're new at chopping. Both cars look good, but they are not perfect. One can only strive for perfection, we all do!! I feel VERY fortunate both these guys trusted me to take the sawzall to their rides!!:)

    Thanx brotha!!
