    Is it going to stay a four-door??? It looks cool either way... chop looks smooth and tasteful!

    I found it in the back of a tattoo shop in Atlanta. Ill post some pics of the rest of the build as soon as I get a chance. Nothing is set in stone but I'm thinking it will prob stay a 4 door.

    Thats gonna be killer. I looked it up one time and 4-door fastbacks were real low production, so you cut up a rare car:eek: . Just kidding, I'm starting to like chopped 4-doors!
     
  6. I dig it....nice work. My preference would be to use coupe doors to shorten up the quarter windows, but that's just me. Sometimes different is good.

    Nice work, I just got a 50 fleetline 2 dr.but it needs a bit of work. I had a 50 in high school. I think you should leave it a four door to be different. good luck with it.

    Not bein' a big 4dr fan, I gotta tell ya, them long quarter windows make the proportioning perfect. Will make a great rod as a 4dr. Have you thought of suicide doors on the rear?.........Ole Pork
