    My son Josh and his friend and I chopped his coupe the other night (five inches) I know it's low but it's his car. Sorry for the dark picture's, my batteries were dead on my good camera.

    Your camera sucks. Josh's coupe deserves better!

    Ya'll don't have another '30/'31 coupe body for sale do you?

    Looking good. Nice to see kids learning by doing. Is this your home shop or your place on business? Love looking in the background on the pitures posted here. Like the brake and the wall art in the background. How you do the wall art? Keep us updated. T

    Time to buy a new digital camera...

    The body looks VERY sharp... Great height if you ask me (which nobody has).

    Thanks guys! I'll show this post to josh, he's been working on the coupe for a couple days and hope's to have it on the road next September. He's been collecting parts since he was fourteen, he's nineteen now. He'll be running a 292 Y-block w/three deuces.

    I got board one night after seeing a post on here about garage art and went out and got some sharpies and went crazy.

    I'll get some new batteries and get some better picture's.
