chopped 57 chevy sedan pics please.

i`m looking at a 57 chevy 2 door sedan that a chop was started on some years ago and would like to see a few pics of ones that have been chopped, even a photo chop would be fine if someone has one, thanks

 

this started as a 57 chevy....

 

Mine's a 56, but it's the same roof line, windsheilds, and doors. Let me know if you have any specific questions, it's a pretty simple chop. Mine's ~4" in the front, and ~6" in the back, lexan windshelids, stock side gl***.


I've got better pictures if you want them, i'm no good with Photobucket.

 

................wow

 

no way that was a 57 chevy, holy **** what is left of it that is 57?

 

I think this "dip" is about all the '57 that's left. LOL

 

What a shame to transform a '57 into that...but then again I'm partial to '57 chevys..

 

I chopped this one 3". I know it's not a traditional car but you get the idea of the chop.

 

I thot I owned a RADICAL chopped '57 hardtop...but this one is just a bit more radical than mine...at least mine keeps some semblance of a '57 Chevy and has not been transformed to look like a Ford product.

R-

 

and i believe this started out as a 4 door if my memory is correct

 

yep, it says it was a four door....

bought half way down on the page on the right...

Here's a 57 Sedan mild-chopped till hardtop height

 

Norm Riparetti's 4 door at the Salinas Drags, 1958. Work in progress. Done by Wilde's Custom Shop. This was a new car at the time.

 

I dig your pic there MrBelair

 

how about a wagon? 2 inches.

 

Those canted quads look right at home on that front end. Is that a 4 door hardtop? Do you know if the windshield was cut or sunk down into the cowl?

Great pic, thanks for posting.

Yes it was a 4 door hardtop and it had a cut windshield. I don't remember any sunk windshield chops in those days. It's hard to see but the rear gl*** isn't even in the car yet. They were still working on it.
