    It's amazing that a 4" chop works on just about any car. I think it has something to do with the fact there is no denying there has been a change in profile. Some cars don't even look chopped at 3" while anything over 4" can make most cars start to have a cartoon look.

    I too like a 4" chop on an A. Perfect. Keeps a nice balance to the 1/4 window. Looks just as good on a Tudor. Props to you 'coupehunter. Lookin good.

    Looks Killer! Nasty litte coupe!

    I've been running those frt. runners for about a month. They are very nice indeed. Quality pieces to be sure. They have been just fine on the street.
    ****s I had to wait 7 months for em. Thats how it often goes when ya want products from Radir.
     
  19. Looks cool!

    The ***le "finely chopped" sounds like something you do to onions when you make some salsa.

    Lookin' good! I chopped mine 4", too.....seems like a perfect amount for a 30-31 coupe. The 28-29 Model A's are taller, and I think if I were to chop one of those, I'd go one more inch for a total of 5". Anyway, keep up the good work, and keep posting your progress with pictures.

    Looks killer! Whether you meant 'finally' chopped or not, you did a 'fine' job doing it. If you get tired of that ugly old wreck, I'll be happy to take it off your hands for ya!

    the quality of those spindle-mount fronts is fantastic, they're a work of art!
    i have a pair on my `59 vw g***er (sorry about that!) they're so nice i'm thinking about getting a pair on the front of my '29 coupe too.

    cheers...jick.

    Finally Chopped or Finely Chopped?

    Anyway ... glad you FINALLY got around to chopping your Model A coupe ... it looks like you did a FINE job :D

    C:cool::cool:L looking coupe ... How cramped is the seating area with the engine set back?



    EDIT: Oops, I see RustyBolts & KreaturesCCaustin already beat me to it!
