    Your shoebox is looking great,I chopped my 4dr,and i keep going round and round about what to do with the rear doors where they meet the c pillar, I really like what you did incorpoarting it into the pillar.Can't wait to see it done.

    Takes guts to hard top a 4 door.As long as the b pillers are reinforced like you did it should work fine. Man you have created (THE LOOK) side profile is awesome! Like the late Elden ***us (RIP) said Profile is everything.You should be and will be proud to drive this one. Nice chop, Dude ya done good!

    I have a mordoor 50 fleetline. Not near as much work into it as you, but you definitely make me feel much more motivated about wrenching on a 4door. Amazing work so far.

    How do you keep the rain out when you hard top a 4-door? I've got a 50 ford 4-door that needs this done. I would like to have some side gl*** though and haven't figured out how to do it.

    I also would love more info on the rear door suicide was done.

    Great project, would love to see more on how you suicided the rear doors. I too have a '51 four door that I would love to try this on. Keep up the great work.

    Your 'box looks great! What kind of hinges did you use on the rear? I am gonna suicide the rears on my '51 but i have had a hell of a time figuring out what to use. The dogleg makes it tight for hinging.
