    I always felt that the '37-'38 Mopars had perfect proportions, and could not be improved with a chop. You have changed my outlook. Is that rear window from a Sedan?? (I thought Coupes did not have the divider bar??)

    Great chop, looks awesome! You can see you've spent a lot of time thinking and fabricating. Keep us posted on the progression...

    Don't let it get to you, that you didn't get to finish the project. You are a true artist, and everyone who asks "who did the chop?", will know it at first glance. It has happened to anyone who has ever built customs for someone else. Sometimes you can't agree, and contrary to the old adage, the customer aint always right. Your metal working skills are what most people admire here, but the vision and execution of it all is what sets you apart from the rest. Stay focused, and move on to another project, in the end, that guy will have wished he had let you fininsh what you started...
