    That looks great. It's a cool moment when you get to cut into your own roof. Nice job!

    looks real good man! My 49' is my first chop as well. Only went 4" though. You nailed it! Now I gotta catch up. Can't wait to shoot mine with high build and get started block sanding. Still a ways to go though...

    Good job!

    Looks great, the profile looks killer. I like the idea of white wites and dark blue paint.
     
  14. Nice job! Keep posting pics as you get closer to finishing the job.

    Good Job!
    I went with 3 1/2 in the front and 5 in the back!

    You can definitely see the difference in the extra two inches off the front.
    I recovered the front seat normal. I wish now I would have taken out some padding. I'm 5-10 and I'm pretty close to the top.

    I sure wish I could have stated with a body as straight as yours.
