    Very cool! I love the wires and stance. It even looks cool without a chop..is there plans for a chop? How about some more pics and details?

    A very nice car with the exception that the radiator shell is higher than cowl giving it the nose up look. My opinion only.

    Plans are a 4 inch chop and shorter radiator so I can drop the shell farther over the front crossmember. It's a work in progress just started a 3 1/2 inch channel
