**KEVIN LEE & The American PIE CUT Special**

seems like your build process treats this like it's made of clay. i think it's your approach that's making this even more interesting.

 

will be interested to watch this one Kevin, a bit of a different approach, looks to be working out nice.
Your donor 1/4's don't have the section around the trunk opening (sort of 6 inches in from the trunk opening towards the wheels.....)by any chance ??

 

I really like it, really nailed the look perfectly!

 

Still loving it... wahoooo...

 

Kevin...or can I call you Grimlok...

I really like the doors, chop and the angled A-pillar...but I have something for you to think about on the windshield. How about tightening up the radius on the lower corners of the windshield...to come closer to the doors and quarter windows. The lower corners just look to round to me for the rest of the car. Just my 2 cents...which may or may not fit your vision.

Carry on.

BAD***!!!!!!! I really would have never thought of this treatment. Wish I had. I do not know if this will make you feel better or feeling that you are not alone, but click on my name and see the 5 window that I am working on and I think you and I have coupes in the same condition. Please keep the updates coming.

 

damn i have wanted to see these pictures forever !


great job so far.

 

Awesome work Kevin. It definitely has that dry lake/early drag coupe look, good work.

 

Keep doing what your doing it looks great.

 

Wow! That looks awesome.....

 

Kev..I have no critique or witty criticism....Frankly I'm impressed at the progress you've made...especially, given where you started.

Your vision, apparently has been well thought.

I cant wait to see what transpires next.

 

WOW!!! This thing is top shelf man!!!

 

Looks great, I think the drip rail indication is cool too, just maybe pull the gutter back to follow the door cut all the way down and pull the "ramped up" beltline trim (on the cowl) back toward the door to intersect the drip rail. Still a nice S shape but not floating on the A pillar.

Hey Jeff, are your cobbler's projects done? My boys need new shoes!!

What is this? East coast greaser speak? I first read these words a few years ago by Chuck Vranas in Street Rodder.
What is it derived from?

 

Friggin sweet! Stuff like this is why I think of cars as scultures!

 

Maybe someday I'll learn to spell sculptures. Sorry for fat-*********.

 

I dig it

 

Gadzooks! That IS killer!

 

any chance you could take a picture standing back a little further. looks great so far

 

love it, although I'd like to add a twist to the topic.....chew it up and spit it out if you like...

I've got a very big love of 'whacked' 33/4 coupes, to which, I offer the following example, illustrating the area being discussed....





Now, granted, that's Rudy's coupe, which, stating the obvious is not an A, but I feel you're chasing the same end result in this particular area. Hence, I'd loose the rounded lower corner of the gl***, or at least minimise it so that it visually blends the join/transition of the 'a' pillar, to which the rain gutter/lip is effectively doing the same (although more from the side view), trying to offer a 'flowing' look, rather than it being just a transition which captures your eye....

Just a thought, either way that car is coming along sweet, make it happen.

Cheers,

Drewfus

 

I think its going to be really bad-***! Keep rockin'!

 

cant wait to see how it all comes out

 

Kick *** dude. I can't wait to read the stories of the first drive etc..... I think your posts are my favorite. So ****ing PURE.

 

200 MPH looking model "A" coupes are cool..........you are for sure on the right track.........I love it!

 

Kevin, This is gonna be good. Stay true. I'm watching. Ruler!

 

That will be and is BADDDDDDDDDD!!!!!!!!!!!

 

WOW...what a refreshing post!!

Love it...i just love it.....Cant wait to see this one done..
