    My Model A sedan has finally been started.
    I've spent many years collecting parts and getting everything ready.
    The ch***is is stock rails but boxed and a 4" kick at the back.
    It will be running a blown 331 Hemi TH700 box and 8" rear.
    I'll post pics here as it comes along.

    Body mocked up before the chop to see how it all sits. 2" blower spacer to go on and 4" of body to come off.

    I have a bunch of miscellaneous body stuff. Window regulators, headlights etc. pay the shipping and you’re welcome to them.

    How much did you chop it? How did you get the rear pillars to fit so well?

    I chopped my 3" but I also had to split the rear corners and work them slowly together to get the rear pillars to look right and line up.

    Here's a pic, you can see the Weld seams.

    Welcome, I'm going to go out on a limb here and take a guess that you might be new to the HAMB, but this ain't your first hot rod.

    Going to make the whole roof as can't get all the parts. Will be easier than using a mix of factory and custom parts. Thanks.
