    I finally got all the body parts for my project. The same guy had the door and windshield frame I needed. It's going back together, I'm building a sub floor in it right now so I can set it on the ch***is. I actually chopped the windshield frame after a wine/beer tasting put on through my work. I guess you're a little braver when you're half in the bag. Here's some shots, enjoy.

    I need to go to work with you , cause I love wine/beer tasting . My 28 coupe hates it when I have tools in my hands and booze on my breath.

    Thanks Steve, you get sick of that 80 degree weather yet? I think it's sleeting outside right now. Let me know when you start on the deuce, I'd love to learn a thing or two if you need a hand.

    Thanks Dezaster I chopped it 6" it's my first attempt at a chop and I'm pretty happy with the way it turned out. Not quite good enough to leave in bare metal but not too bad for my limited skills. I'll take some better pics when it's back on the ch***is and I can roll it outside. Well as long as it's not snowing by then. Cheers!

    Yup, it's already channeled almost 6". So when I put it on the ch***is the whole car is just under 48" tall from the pavement to the peak of the roof piece above the door. I think it will fit under the security gate at work.
