    To chop a car like that and only disturb very little of the paint is truly amazing! It appears to me you accomplished this with no filler. Definitely the results of a true metal master! 60 Special

    That is a great looking chop. Just right and not squashed like a herd of Orca betties sat on the roof like you see too much of. Very well done, remember to show us what it looks like after paint.
