    Id leave it alone. Theres already way to many chopped and channeled. If you really must id channel it very little but i wouldnt chop it at all. But its your car. I want to chop my 52 all though my dad says not to. My name is on the title so i win.

    Chopped hi boy would be the thing for me. Take the wing window out and you got the lines and just need the stance to finish it off.
     
  7. I vote chop with no channel....How tall are you plays a part as well.....Do what you like and what is comfy for you.....John

    Absolutly, like tomcandoit said. It's not a Ford. No offence to anyone but, the 33-34 Chevys need fenders. Chop it 3 to 4 inches and add the fenders.

    Man, I'd give serious consideration to a radical chop on that thing. Don't extend the roof (like the shiny black one) but lay down the a-pillars.

    Of course this is a '32 Ford but get the roof to look like this. YES you want to try to make it look like a Ford, that funky roof, giant vent windows, and ugly frame need to go. Still a neat car and the end of the line for the wood Chevys. Cool.

  14. yea i think they look really funny sometimes with out fenders.the frame that is they just dont flow like the fords do. but the big problem with full fendered chevys is finding fenders:(

    Add fenders and chop it. They have nice lines with the fenders. Sort of awkard without fenders unless you're going to chop, channel and rake it like the black '33 chevy.

    Just my $.02.

    I wouldn't choose the VW front end or the short wheelbase. But This is what I would do.

    Against popular opinon I'd run no fenders.I love vent windows but these are too big,get rid of them.As far as chop and channel it would look good with or without.
