    Hey, I heard Hillary Clinto went on Leno to turn things around, but it didn't work--Leno's still not funny.

    Thanks for the replies but i'm starting to have second thoughts. Does anyone else have a good example of a deluxe business coupe chop? Thanks again.

    Bill Hines did that I think. The bat? Or something. Beautiful car, Jag suspension w/ stock column. Trick and I bet it rides like a dream.

    OK, thanks. I am not certain if I have a deluxe or standard coupe but it is definately a coupe with the long trunk lid area. I have seen good examples and bad examples of this chop in the past and I am trying to convince myself and my dad (who happens to like the stock look) that these cars can look nice with the right technique.

    the problem as i see it with these cars these days is too many people chop them too much to the point where they look bad.

    as for hardtops... I've seen way more ****ed up no side gl*** hardtops than nice ones... I don't think that is a good mod for very many cars

    For the lazy folks like myself that don't like links. Here's a pic of Shoeze from this weekend at the eyes on design car show. I believe it place first in its cl***, congrats John! It's even more beautiful in person where you can see all the cool details on it.
