    I like a mild chop, don’t loose the original look of the body, just improves it, IMHO. That’s the same amount I’m chopping my coupe.
    Your coupe and this sedan will make quite a pair[emoji106]

    Staying a high-boy, I like the no fender look myself.

    Perfect. Great restraint ,to achieve a sleek look without saying "hey i chopped my car as much as I could now it looks goofy" . Sure a salt flat coupe looks good slammed hard, but this chop is not the first thing that hits you , you just see a cool hot rod then look closer as to why it looks cool.

    Krylon32, I did it like you told me to awhile back. 2 1\2" front, 2 1\8 middle, 2"" rear. I only took 1" out of the back window. Thanks for the advice. Also I have one your ch***is under my coupe and have over 9000 miles on it with no problems at all. Thanks again!!

    I’ve been a big fan of your 5w for awhile. Now I am with this one as well. Hell yes no fenders, shows more of the awesomeness that way.
