***Munster's 51' Chevy coupe Chop***

HAHA!! True fact!!

 

Not a very big update, but after some GREAT help from some GREAT people on here, i started leading the small imperfections. I still have a TON to learn but you gotta start somewhere!!! It's fun though!!

Still got a bunch to learn, especially paddle control/heat , but it's cool to learn something new!! Thanx to Munster for letting me try it on his car!!

 

One of the nicest chops I've seen. Looks great man!

 

Is Munster going to paint the roof now, or leave the filler exposed?

 

That is one fine chop, the lines are perfect and the metal work is an A+.
Keep us updated.

I know its been said 100x already. But perfect.

Perfect work.

Perfect eye.

Come by brotha!! Call first though , i have a couple errands to run!!!

 

Really nice Ian.Damn man you are steady making progress...keep it up.

 

wow.. just very outstanding work ....keep it up

 

Thank you Muncie!!!

Im excited to go back today and continue more leading!! It's really fun doing something new and learning cool shit. Leading seemed impossible to me! At Gene's class i couldnt keep the lead on the panel, and its was flat on the table!! LOL!!

Thanx Lorodz!!

 

looks great,what type of lead are you using?

 

Thank you !! Lead free from eastwood!!! I had some problems first since it's my first time, but some fellas on here helped me figured out what i was doing wrong...... TINNING!! I wasn't heating the flux until it turned silver!! I really like it since you can sand it, unlike the original lead!

 

Dude, I knew this lead thing would come to you. Just a small bump and your back on track. Progression man, you were born for this shit.

 

Thanx JJ!! Im passionate , just like the rest of us brotha!!!!!

Thank you brotha!!! I look up to guys like you my friend!!

 

Great Work!

 

Wow, Ian your killing it! I'm a huge fan of un-chopped coupes but I'm REALLY digging this one.

 

Thank you man!!

Im glad i can change people's opinion on coupes!! A LOT of people say NEVER chop a coupe, I was a little scared!!

Alright enough fuckin around, time to go in the garage!!!!
