    It was 60 degrees here Sunday, so I thought I would push it outside and sweep the garage.

    Another view. 6" chop. tires are 450-16 and 750-16. The motor is a V-8 and it is sitting about a foot back. More on that another day.

    are you from North Carolina - or do they make sun drop in Wisconsin too? I thought that was only a NC thing.

    I would have been scared to chop that much, but I like it - What is your plan for the rear window?

    Looks good, but the wheels and stance make the car look awesome. Perhaps I'll see it around.

    Really nice!
    I like that engine set-back. How do you plan on doing the exhaust?
    Make sure you get some more progress pic's up here for us. Please.

    Well here's what I'd do, lowest highboy ever built! So low, the wheels are off the ground....

    you mean HAYSTACK wasted all that time and work to get the rear tires to fit in the wheelwells the way he did, (he shortened a pair of BRAND NEW deuce rails 6" to make the bodyline right, and to get the tires sit centered in the rear wheelwells....) HE must have ****ED UP...... think of how much work and time he could have saved by building his car super low like all the other A sedans out there, and hide those bodylines with tires... , and think about how much cooler that car would look if it was s****ing on the ground , HA HA......

    The stance would be perfect if it was exactly like Jimmy Shine's truck.

    Is that a cheap shot at Luke's bare metal pick-up that he built? If so that's pretty big talk from little punk that sweeps peoples shops so he can hang out. The bare metal truck rules!!! What have you built???? I'm sure your hot rod and metalworking skills are far superior to his so let's see your ride. Oh and Haystack...That A is bad***!!!!
