    Nice work! Love the roofline. Did you sink the stock back window or use something else?

    The best tip i can give you is try to find some coupe doors if you can,it will save you a ton of work.
    I will have to check my picturealbum but i didnt took to much foto's i kept forgetting to take them

    That's quite a challenge doing a sedan for your first chop,,looks good..Ah,,it's the fender skirts that are giving the allusion of a lowered stance.Sure not a simple job and anyone who has never done one has no idea the challenges that pop up. My first chop is a 42 K2

    Yeah its defenetly not so simple,took a lot of measuring and testfitting to get it to this point,and thank god for the H.A.M.B.
    The backwindow was the hardest part since we where keeping the beltline but it came out good.

    Wow it came out good from what I can see. Those longer front doors almost make it look like you shortened the wheelbase on the car.
